I use Codex and Claude Code. I've used both Codex and CC since release with basically every model they've ever released, I always try both for almost every plan that I write and benchmark the plans against each other, Claude almost always acknowledges that the Codex plan is better! Even now with Fable, this still happens.

As in, I give the exact same prompt to Fable and GPT 5.5 Pro, then produce the plans, then give each model the other's plan. Claude always realizes it missed stuff and Codex usually ends up finding missing things in Claudes plan.

This situation did improve with Fable versus Opus 4.8, but in general, Codex for me is still the better model.
