But you can already do that, in the terminal. Open your favourite terminal, use splits or tmux and spin up as many claude code or codex instances as you want. In parallel. I do it constantly. For all kinds of tasks, not only coding.

But they don't communicate. These do.

Does the Codex app host MCP Apps?

Eh. Kicked the tires for a few minutes. Back to the old clunker app.

No worries. I'm not their target demographic, anyway.

> We're also excited to show more people what's now possible with Codex . For a limited time we're including Codex with ChatGPT Free and Go, and we're doubling the rate limits on Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans.

Translated from Marketingspeak, this is presumably "we're also desperate for some people to actually use it because everyone shrugged and went back to Claude Code when we released it".

I dunno, feels like the models have different weak/strong points, sometimes I can sit with Claude Code for an hour with some issue, try it with Codex and have it solved in five minutes, and also the opposite happens. I tend to use Codex mostly when I care more about correctness and not missing anything, Claude when it's more important I do it fast and I know exactly what it needs to do, Codex seems to require less hand-holding. Of course, just anecdotal.

GPT models definitely seem stronger when they "get it" and in the types of problems they "get", while claude seems more holistic but not "as smart" as some of the spikes GPT can get.

Yeah this is clearly just a marketing re-release but if they've executed well i'm happy to try it

They also claim 2x usage from December (though 2x a tiny amount is still a tiny amount)

Another boring update from OpenAI. Why would I want an orchestration tool tied to one model? Part of the value of orchestration tools is using the most appropriate and/or cost effective model for the task, sub-task, etc
