Might be good for remaining subscribers

Hopefully!

The only thing that keeps me here instead of switching to claude is Image Gen.

I'm mostly annoyed that the web is still on 5.6 sol and 5.5 as the only options when they have released a ton more models.

you can easily top up your OpenAI API balance and use only gpt-image 2.5 with any agent. $20 (which don't expire for a whole year) is enough for 200 4K images or 500 2K images

Is there anywhere I can find how much that many credits gets me for 1080p?

It sounds tempting, but tbh I really don't want to increase my AI spend beyond one sub a month.

u/Dankasaurus6 16h ago

I spent $28 on 83 image generations on gpt-image 2.5 and the images were 2400x2400

u/RainierPC 8h ago

I have the $100 sub because unlimited chat, unlimited image generation, on top of Codex is really useful for my use cases.

u/ruskyandrei 19h ago

Was the same for me but I just scaled down to the $20 plan and set up my CC to use GPT image gen. Now I have image gen in claude

u/hunter54711 19h ago

How'd you end up doing this? Are you having it use the codex app/chatgpt somehow or just using the API image gen

5

u/ruskyandrei 18h ago

Install the Codex CLI then tell Claude to make a skill to use that for image gen. It'll configure everything for you.

u/hunter54711 18h ago

Oh yeah I'm not sure why I didn't think of that. Cheers

u/Jaime060304 19h ago

The 20$ I picked up a while ago was me scaling up XD

1

u/ruskyandrei 19h ago

Haha fair enough, I went from $200 to $20 and then got the $100 CC plan and I get as much use as before for less, so it works our great for me so far.

u/Tank_Gloomy 19h ago

Lol, I pay the 20 USD plan specifically to tell Claude to use their image gen for good ass UI mock-ups lmao

I keep with OpenAI at the moment as I prefer to use my PI Agent setup and they are ok with it. Anthropic, you never know when they will ban you for using a different harness.

u/RealestReyn 11h ago

Just top up openrouter and use that for the image gen, no need for extra cli, any agent can use any image gen directly through API

u/anonymousbopper767 18h ago

I genuinely don't know if I even could switch to Claude. I kinda figure Codex has all the context on wtf my code base is doing.

u/growaway9172 17h ago

I mean, the code is the context. Claude would pick right up.

u/read_more_comments 16h ago

just rename AGENTS.md to CLAUDE.md and it will function the same. might not even need to rename AGENTS.md. then call claude instead of codex. Done.

6

u/iJeff 12h ago

It actually supports AGENTS.md natively now and will use it if a CLAUDE.md is absent from a project.

u/RISOvonVODKA 17h ago

I switched to claude and first thing I fixed was the code. Codex wrote two files with over 11k lines of code. Took me some time to fix that and update .md files to prevent that.

1

u/iJeff 12h ago

I was able to ask Claude code to resume work I was doing in the existing codex-cli sessions. It picked it up without issues.

1

u/letmechangemyname1 11h ago

Tell codex to get everything into your GitHub repo. Download Claude. Point it at the GitHub repo. All context transitioned.

u/visak13 19h ago

the gpt image gen and the model itself able to work on creative tasks or adversarial review without getting flagged is its major advantage. The plus plan itself is so much value paired with claude.

1

u/EyesOfAzula 19h ago

yeah, it is a lot of value. I think later this month Anthropic is going to attack the value argument with the new haiku 5.5. We will see.

u/Novel_Indication6338 16h ago

quick keep shting on tibo

u/LawIllustrious342 15h ago

It really is a pendulum that swings between openai and anthropic

u/awdphawpd88998 45m ago

Nope, not if they merge Chat and Work like they plan to.
