claude code feels mildly shitty to use in the way that every other vibe-coded-project-got-out-of-hand project does, which is like, not that bad, but it's fucking ridiculous for a 2 trillion dollar company's main companion product
Compare this to the Codex CLI that is no fluff, minimal and just does it's job. Open AI models are in a totally different league to Anthropic (in the real world) so no loss really.
