I Hit My Claude Code Limit and Tried Codex

I hit my Claude Code weekly limit and finally gave Codex a real shot. After two weeks running Codex CLI as my daily driver, I didn’t switch — I split. This is a translation guide, not a benchmark.

I walk through the two moments that changed my mind (a codebase audit and a vague-intent feature build), then show how to share your existing setup across both tools: AGENTS.mdCLAUDE.md, the npx skills add flow for .claude/skills and .agents/skills, and the Codex CLI config I actually run day-to-day.
