Have you actually had it do anything substantial and then tried to work with the code it produces afterwards? It may "work" but it's a horrific mess. Good luck

- wahnfrieden 9mo agoYes, with GPT 5.2 Codex and 5.2 Pro specifically. It’s not a mess because of the context I provide and the guidance and reattempts I apply. It’s working great, the resulting code is good when I accept it, and I’m getting much more done than in the before times.
- bpodgursky 9mo agoYes, Opus 4.5 is not business as normal. If you haven't tried it, you really need to, to update your opinion.

- KellyCriterion 9mo agoDo not throw your project in there as a whole. Chunk it into single parts/components/building blocks. Then do each of these a dedicated project/workspace. In each of these workspaces, you put in only the source code relevant for this module. You are working in each project/workspace separately. Try this
- KellyCriterion 9mo agoYes. Im working productive with it every day (Claude Opus). If you provide enough context, the code usually works veeeery well on first shot. (For sure, I do not tell it "build me a facebook", instead Im telling it precisely which single function I want to have, how it should work, what the output should be. Its just a boon.
