Dev compares coding agents: Claude Opus feels like an eager junior, Codex like a calm senior
ssh4net · x · 2026-10-06
Developer ssh4net shared a hands-on comparison: Claude Opus feels like an energetic junior engineer — asks the right questions but rushes to start, with a higher chance the core needs review or redesign later. Codex (Astra/Sol) feels like a mature senior: unhurried, offers interesting ideas when discussing porting plans, and inspires confidence that progress won't need much supervision.
