I used Codex's /goal for weeks, then tested Claude Code's new /goal on tasks Codex failed; the behavioral difference is striking enough to document.

A friend asked if I'd take an AI transformation role. My take: don't save money, avoid IDEs, keep agents inspectable. GPT-5.5, two weeks old; 10 weeks left.

Codex APP agents burned a Pro account in two days for little gain; Codex CLI Goal fixed it. I blamed the model; agents are maturing; no screen babysitting.

After a week with GPT-5.5 and Opus 4.7, I learned stronger models don't remove the human burden: Claude paused, GPT-5.5 killed a direction; I still steered.

Two weeks with GPT-5.5 (SPUD): I've mostly dropped Claude Code. The leap isn't a few percent gain—old weaknesses fixed make agent design philosophy clear.

Another GPT-6 'release' went viral: fake news wins attention, real reporting is a niche. AI is making the problem worse, so I moved us back to Claude Code.
