From what I got Apple is using claude code A LOT internally

Yes they are using Claude Code - not the Xcode agents.

It worries me. I hope Codex adoption picks up there.

thats a shame if true, they really should be dog-fooding that horrible agent ui in xcode to bring it up to a usable state
The UI got a massive overhaul in the new Xcode beta. It’s no longer confined to the sidebar.
Devs continue to be tricked by incremental updates to it. It's still deficient
A lot of devs are tricked into using it because it’s official
I love how it doesn't even support reasoning output or edit tool diffs. (Yes it can show diffs sometimes when using the 100% official flow but not when using ACP)
It also doesn't support Computer Use or Browser Use among other deficiencies
Sure but the basics should be down before tackling those, and they're not.
It would be interesting to see their internal guidance on LLM use. It’s a massive amount of new power that has to be wielded carefully. That kind of guidance might mean the survival or downfall of some big corps in the next few years.
