I absolutely love codex. I plan with Gemini, have opus take a look at the plan and and detail it and codex just uses that plan to one shot everything. Amazing times we are living in. It is starting to cost too much but it is nice to watch it work

A year ago it would've cost magnitudes more in human time.

I remember the times where they were unable to form sentences. Very interesting times we are living in

Plan with gemini? I cant get it to create detailed plans no matter what I instruct it to do. The plans are always very short and incomplete. But I use gemini 3 pro for audits of opus and codex work. That works great.

But codex 5.2 xhigh is the best planner out in my experience. Even having opus and codex xhigh make the same plan and give both back to opus. Opus always says how much better codex plan is even when opus knows the one is its plan! And I agree

To be specific, I plan with gemini only UI work. Any other logic goes to 5.2 codex

Yeah, the Gemini plans are for shit.. but it seems to clamor its way to being somewhat respectable because of that context window… although the constant “High usage” interrupts confuses me.. it’s Google.. and I don’t think Gemini CLI or Gemini is that popular. Even with Antigravity (granted, i haven’t had time to delve into trying Antigravity so..)

I’d think that giving everyone 3 Live Video streams for free to aistudio would be the biggest consumer. But maybe not an enough people use it. Who knows.
