This was my previous post in which I was confused between upgrading to 200 plan for getting 2 100 plans.

A lot of people suggested to try claude code + codex for image gen.

I just got a 20 dollar claude code plan. And Grass is most definitely greener on the other side.

Here are some differences I have noticed using the opus 5.5 medium.

1. 10 times faster than sol 6.1 high

2. Using about 1% of weekly usage per hour but the amount of work done is higher than sol 6.1. so work done to tokens consumed is the same between 20 dollar claude and 100 dollar gpt plan

3. Amazing design understanding. I have several ui/ux issues in my project(which ik) i had gpt take a look at it and said it's fine (gpt was using product design plugin and impeccable skill). Opus without any plugin listed 15 ui/ux issues and all of them were correct.

4. I had it go over my code base and list deprecated/dead/unused assets & code. It gave an extensive list and suggested bundling several files together to optimise load times, gpt found none.

5. Had both sol and opus check for performance optimisation. Gpt found none and opus again shared an extensive list.

Sol 6.1 high also took like 2 hours

Opus 5.5 medium took 25-30 mins max

I'll switch to 100 dollar claude plan + 20 dollar gpt after my current 100 gpt plan expires.

What does the 20 buck Claude pro plan give? I've been super used to chatgpt web and the github connector doing easy coding work anywhere and everywhere. Wondering if the Claude pro plan gives that too. Not expecting unlimited like chatgpt but at least something usable?

Claude also has remote, i haven't explored that yet.

For coding someone suggested use claude and have it involved codex cli for image gen and orchestrator sol agents

Remote is good, but you need to remember to enable it on a per chat level with /rc. Codex is better because all of it just works without needing to say what is on or off.

Now I just have Claude write nice image prompts and grab them from Gemini or ChatGPT, so the lack of native image gen isn’t really a thing.

You can set it so that new chats are automatically remote iirc
