I am a heavy Claude Code user. I just tried using Codex with 5.4 (as a Plus user I don't have access to 5.5 yet), and it was quite underwhelming. The app stopped regularly much earlier than what I wanted. It also claimed to have fixed issues when it did not; this is not a hallmark of GPT, and Opus has similar issues, but Claude will not make the same mistake three times in a row. It is unusable at the moment, while Claude allows me do get real work done on a daily basis. Until then...
Gpt-5.3-codex is miles better than 5.4 in that regard. It’s better at orchestration, and does the things that it said it did. Haven’t tested 5.5 yet but using 5.4 for exploration + brainstorming and handing over the findings to 5.3-codex works pretty well
