OpenCode also has an extremely fast and reliable UI compared to the other CLIs. I’ve been using Codex more lately since I’m cancelling my Claude Pro plan and it’s solid but haven’t spent nearly as much time compared to Claude Code or Gemini CLI yet.

But tbh OpenAI openly supporting OpenCode is the bigger draw for me on the plan but do want to spend more time with native Codex as a base of comparison against OpenCode when using the same model.

I’m just happy to have so many competitive options, for now at least.

Seconded. I find codex lacks only two things:

- hooks (this is a big one)

- better UI to show me what changes are going to be made.

the second one makes a huge diff and it's the main reason I stopped using opencode (lots of other reasons too). in CC, I am shown a nice diff that I can approve/reject. in codex, the AI makes lots of changes but doesn't pin point what changes it's doing or going to make.
