why would it need local network access though, I wonder?

Tried it, not impressed. Terrible UX and generally just confusing. Didn't really intuitively know where to go and why. The thing that made me most mad was the clunkiness around pulling specific files into the chat input as context. Like wtf, bad, bad, bad!

I love competition

For pure code generation is ChatGPT 5.2 so much better than Claude opus 4.5 thinking to have me switch? I’m basically all in on Claude.

Sure I could move to open code and use them as commodities but I’ve gotten use to Claude code and like using the vendors first party app.

What are the max context sizes ?

Kind of embarrassing to demo "Please change this string to gpt-5.2". Presumably the diff UI doesn't let you edit the text manually? Or are they demonstrating being so AI-brained you refuse to type anything yourself?

I really want to like the native Mac app aesthetic but I kinda hate it. It screams minimalist but also clearly tells me it’s not meant for a power user. That ruggedness and sensitivity is missing.

It keeps offering me to "Get Plus" even though I am signed and already have a Plus plan.

Codex really grown on me lately. I re-signed to try it out on a project I have and it turned out to be really great addition to my toolkit.

It isn't always perfect and it's cli (how I mostly use it) isn't as sophisticated as OpenCode which is my default.

I am happy with this app, I am using Superset, terminal app which suprisingly is well positioned to help you if you work in cli like I do. But like I said, new desktop app seems like a solid addition.

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.

Does the Codex app host MCP Apps?
