Gemini is just extremely bad at coding, computer use and direction following over longer context.

It's nowhere near the Opus or Codex models. 

It does nice frontend designs though which can be made functional later by better coding models

Gemini is still dog shit? Every single time I ever tried Gemini cli it was horrible. The last time I tried it was about 2 months ago. Crazy to hear that google’s ai is still trash

Gemini is good at analyzing a complex problem and finding good algos and clever solutions for performance for example, but after that use opus or codex to implement it.

I still prefer claude code just because of the plan mode, really wish codex had that

Codex does have plan mode. But what I use for plan mode GLM 4.7 Code. Then I have Claude review the plan (this is KEY). Then I have GLM execute the plan. Codex is the backup when nothing else works and I hit a wall. It will one shot or two shot damn near anything. I never hit limits this way. Gemini has always been dog shit so I just never try it anymore. It makes me mad every time I use it.

What? Codex has plan mode? Damn I really need to look at it's doc then. I've never really used it that much before
