Codex+ChatGPT merge sense to me (despite being clumsily executed)
Now OpenAI’s playing in the same big 3 arenas as Anthropic
- Consumer: ChatGPT vs Claude
- Enterprise (non-coding): ChatGPT Work vs Claude Cowork
- Coding: ChatGPT Codex vs Claude Code
im confused about openai's strategy of merging chatgpt and codex together
in my mind they made sense as 2 separate apps, for 2 different (huge) audiences
My favorite phrase to say to Codex/Claude Code is “Pareto improvement”
I use it everytime I’m planning, reviewing, or prodding the agent to improve and cleanup my codebase.
A Pareto improvement is a change that makes one aspect of a system better, without making any other
Finally found a productive workflow for QA’ing frontends with agents.
Can’t believe it took this long for me to find a working setup.
In Codex & Claude Code, there’s a few ways the agent can help QA your app in a real browser:
1. First-party Chrome extension
2. In-app browser
Addicted to telling Codex or Claude Code to “get a subagent to do [task]”, especially since it keeps the main thread clean and you can continue chatting in it.
Makes me wish regular ChatGPT and Claude had this.
This pattern is helpful for ideation/research/planning tasks too!
