I use both Codex and Claude, mostly cuz it's cheaper to jump between them than to buy a Max sub for my use-case. My subjective experience is that Codex is better with larger or weird, speghetti-ish codebases, or codebases with more abstract concepts, while Claude is good for more direct uses. I haven't spent significant time fine-tuning the tools for my codebases.

Once, I set up a proxy that allowed Claude and Codex to "pair program" and collaborate, and it was cool to watch them talk to each other, delegate tasks, and handle different bits and pieces until the task was done.
