Use Claude Code to write code and Codex to review the diff
Claude Code handles the first round of or updates, then Codex reviews only what changed. Codex is told to look for , missing tests, security-related mistakes, and whether the result still follows the original request. The value comes from using two with different weak spots, so one can catch mistakes the other may miss.
The workflow is aimed at better code quality, stronger debugging, clearer context handling, and possible token saving. It is described as an intermediate workflow for quality control, context and memory, debugging, and coding.
Key points
- Claude Code is used for the first or update.
- Codex is used afterward to review the diff critically.
- The review checks , missing tests, security-related mistakes, and fit with the original request.
- The workflow uses different AI tools to catch different kinds of mistakes.
- Token saving depends on limiting the review to the diff instead of the whole codebase.
