- The smartest model I have used. Solves problems better than Opus-4.1.
- It can be lazy. With Claude Code / Opus, once given a problem, it will generally work until completion. Codex will often perform only the first few steps and then ask if I want to continue to do the rest. It does this even if I tell it to not stop until completion.
- I have seen severe degradation near max context. For example, I have seen it just repeat the next steps every time I tell it to continue and I have to manually compact.
I'm not sure if the problems are Gpt-5 or Codex. I suspect a better Codex could resolve them.
