Codex is truly becoming the everything app.

I barely use ChatGPT anymore. I use Codex for coding, searching email, searching slack, terminal work, repo analysis, reading, journaling, and honestly a huge chunk of my daily workflow now.

@vinoth makes me wonder what the harness under the site looks like compared to the api
@Viss Not sure what you mean by comparing harness with API!? Two different things, right?
@vinoth the harness and the api are very different. when the claude code source leaked, it was packed full of additional instructions and direction that folks could easily parse out, and it very much would cause the models to behave differently than raw api calls made directly to the model.

@Viss Got it. Codex harness has been open source from the beginning. If interested, you can check or ask codex to read and answer specific questions.

@vinoth yeah - ive been using codex for a couple weeks now, and when the claude code source leaked it was an interesting experience to start to stack the codebases up against one another to see how they compared. claude code is rife with tons of these extra instructions and addon snippets to try and account for tons of other stuff, where codex just ... doesnt have that at all.

very interesting
