This sounds as expected to me as a heavy user of Opus. Claude absolutely has a "personality" that is a lot less formal and more willing to "play along" with more creative tasks than Codex. If you want an agent that's prepared to just jump in, it's a plus. If you want an agent that will be careful, considered and plan things out meticulously, it's not always so great - I feel that when you want Claude to do reptitive, tedious tasks, you need to do more work to prevent it from getting "bored" and try to take shortcuts or find something else to do, for example.

Is this sentance seriously about a computer? Have we gone so far that computers wont just do what we tell them to anymore?
Yup - most models ignore specific initial instructions once you pass ~50% of usable context window, and revert to their defaults eg generating overtly descriptive yet useless docs / summaries
