I did deep dive comparison of Claude Code vs OpenAI Codex code agents architectures, interesting what is your personal experience on this?

Both Claude Code and OpenAI Codex are built on the same backbone: a single-agent event loop that repeatedly thinks, calls tools, inspects the result, and repeats until it’s done. No swarms, no hidden graph orchestration — just one reflective agent iterating through a ReAct-style cycle.

I'll be blunt: I just want working code. I don't want to spend hours correcting AI mistakes then find out that I have no usage limit left. The architecture isn't as important as the ability to document, debug, and adapt quickly.

I hear you — working code and not burning through your quota matter way more than any internal architecture diagram.

I’m looking at the architecture mainly to understand why some tools feel more reliable and easier to debug than others.

What’s been your experience so far — any setup that actually feels close to “it just works”?
