Fingers crossed for this to work well! Claude Code is pretty excellent.

I’m actually legitimately surprised how good it is, since other coding agents I’ve used before have mostly been a letdown, which made me only use Claude in direct change prompting with Zed (“implement xyz here”, “rewrite this function with abc”, etc), so very hands-on.

So I’ve went into trying out Claude Code rather pessimistically, and now I’m using it all the time! Sure, it ends up costing a bunch, but it’s easy to justify $15 for a prompting session if the end result is a mostly complete PR, done much faster.

All that is to say - competition is good, fingers crossed for codex!

Seconded. I was surprised by how good Claude Code is, even for less mainstream languages (Clojure). I am happy there is competition!
