This is where Codex 5.5 just feels practically better. It’s fast, thoughtful and just works. It feels like a pleasure compared to Opus/Fable’s endless explorations.


It also uses 1/4th to 1/10th the amount of tokens. If I want all that extra garbage I'll tell Codex to do it or build a pipeline with Codex. Otherwise, don't. Codex gives you control, Claude just does whatever it wants and ignores you, and then tells you it's finished the task when it's only finished a quarter of the tasks you gave it and hallucinates the rest.
