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.

I think Codex is probably marginally stronger than Opus in my testing.

But it's much much worse at writing issues than Claude models.

Yeah it's really weird with automatically making changes. I read in it's chain of thought that it's going to request approval for something from the user, the next message was approval granted doing it. Very weird...

You can't see diffs in git?

How you using hooks?
