Not OP, but I use Codex for back-end, scripting, and SQL. Claude Code for most front-end. I have found that when one faces a challenge, the other often can punch through and solve the problem. I even have them work together (moving thoughts and markdown plans back and fourth) and that works wonders.

My progression: Cursor in '24, Roo code mid '25, Claude Code in Q2 '25, Codex CLI in Q3 `25.

Cursor for me until 3-4 weeks ago, now Codex CLI most of the time.

These tools change all the time, very quickly. Important to stay open to change though.
