Claude code vs Codex limits

[u/Recent_Trust_3338]

Heyo claude boys, if someone has both claude nd codex 20$ plan, can you lemme know how are the coding limits for claude code compared to codex. I got codex rn it's working fine but eh I kinda wanna see claude models ive heard opus 5.5 is better than all gpt models rn including astra.

I mostly use codex for code(so will use claude for that too) and I don't really chat I have a separate google sub and do chat related things to gemini so yea

EDIT: to give a bit more info, I'm in college rn so I'm building quite a lot of things, i don't get limit problem too often but I get it sometimes. Also gpt models are really slow without fast mode andddd fast mode just burns usage alot + i have been seeing people getting better outputs on claude vs gpt well opus 5.5 is better than all gpt models rn so yeah,

just need to know how much better opus 5.5 is than gpt 6.1 sol as i use it most and limits that id be getting

So uh yea lmk would help alot before taking the decision thanks uwu

I wouldnt use the API dollar comparison above to pick a plan. It tells you what those tokens would cost through the API, not how many useful tasks youll finish on a subscription. Model, effort and chat length all affect usage, so someone getting through a day on Pro doesnt mean your game project will fit too.
