Opus 5.5 vibe check: Every's Codex converts are switching back to Claude
every · x · 2026-09-25
Every's team review finds Opus 5.5 — Fable-level power at roughly 60% of Fable's token price — winning back former Claude users who had switched to Codex. Klaassen made it his daily driver; Nishida's "jaw dropped" repeatedly; Shipper calls it a "smaller Fable" but still prefers Codex for writing. It fixes Opus 5's argumentative habits, though its prose buries the point and it can overreach.
