Sometimes it's great, sometimes it's not. Depends on the tools you're using too, I guess. Like when using Roo-Code, Gemini 2.5 Pro still gets confused by the wonky diff format Roo-Code wants it to use. It'll keep messing up simple edits, and if it happens once, it'll happen again and again, cause it's multi-shotting itself to make mistakes.
I don't have that with Claude-Code, it just keeps on chugging along.
One big difference there though: I got the Claude-Code Pro Max plan (or whatever it's called). I now no longer have to worry about the cost since it's a monthly flat-fee, so if it makes a mistake it doesn't make me angry, since the mistake didn't cost me 5 euros.
I am using an MCP server that adds Gemini & O3 to Claude-Code, so Claude-Code can ask them for assistance here and there, and in this Gemini 2.5 Pro has been such a great help. Especially because its context size is so much larger, it can take in a lot more files than Claude can, so it's better at spotting mistakes.
