Stop switching: Claude plans, Codex implements—a dual-model workflow
Specialist_Agent3599 · reddit · 2026-08-09
A developer shares how he stopped chasing a single all-purpose model, instead using Claude for planning and code review, and Codex for implementation. He notes Claude's occasional overconfident refactors and Codex's slowness and literalness, but they complement each other. He uses coldtea to manage worktrees, and says if only one subscription, Claude Code is more general.
