Is it even possible to actually use codex any other way? Every time I’ve tried logging in instead of using the API, I’ve hit the usage limits within a couple of hours.
people are sleeping on openai right now but codex 5.2 xhigh is at least as good as opus and you get a TON more usage out of the OpenAI $20/mo plan than Claude's $20/mo plan. I'm always hitting the 5 hour quota with Opus but never have with Codex. Codex tool itself is not quite as good but close.
I do not think so. I have been using both for a long time and with Claude I keep hitting the limits quickly and also most of the time arguing.
The latest GPT is just getting things done and does it fast. I also agree with most of them that the limits are more generous. (context, do lot of web, backend development and mobile dev)
In the past month, OpenAI has released for codex users:
- subagents support
- a better multi agent interface (codex app)
- 40% faster inference
No joke, with the first two my productivity is already up like 3x. I am so stoked to try this out.
