Claude Code > Gemini Code > Codex

Based solely on my gut feeling after having played with each one of them on some toy projects.

One pet peeve I had with Codex was that it did not want to finish things, when asked to move stuff, if it thought it was too much it just left at the end of the file.

Gemini Pro worked fine the little I tried it but I dislike on principle because it’s not possible to deactivate the history when it’s part of the Google Suite/Workspace/Apps. I’m actually not sure if that affects Gemini Code.

Claude Code seems to be a good balance.

At some point I will try to compare by giving them the same instructions on the same project and see what actually happens.
