1/5 Writing code with Claude Code, switching to Codex for review, then switching back to make changes. Each switch is a murder of your train of thought. You’re not writing code—you’re running yourself ragged.
Until OpenAI released an official plugin for rival Claude Code: codex-plugin-cc
2/5. Sounds a bit wild. But what’s even wilder is that it actually works. Three commands solve three pain points:
• /codex:review — Have Codex review your code, way more thorough than you’d do yourself
• /codex:rescue — Stuck? Just dump the mess onto Codex
• Adversarial review — Tear your own code apart from the most critical angle
3/5. Install directly via the plugin marketplace:
/plugin marketplace add openai/codex-plugin-cc /plugin install codex@openai-codex /reload-plugins /codex:setup
If you prefer npm:
npm install -g @openai/codex
4/5. The most interesting part? You don’t even need to manually call Codex. When Claude gets stuck, it calls Codex in to bail it out. Two models covering each other’s blind spots. Each playing to its strengths.
5/5. Competition between AI companies isn’t the whole story. codex-plugin-cc shows: when the tools are good enough, boundaries disappear. The Claude + Codex combo isn’t a compromise—it’s a paradigm shift.
Still switching windows one at a time?
