You can use Crystal (https://github.com/stravu/crystal) to run Codex and Claude Code at the same time and just pick the best result.

Ain't nobody got time and money to run multiple agents at the same time

Unfortunately I already pay for and use both, because on the $20/mo plan, you get cut off after a few hours due to usage limits. Claude resets daily after "5 hours" (I can't determine what runs the clock, but it seems to be wall time (?!)), and Codex cuts you off for multiple days after a long session.

We built a tool to use Git Worktrees to manage all of our in-progress agents. It's expanded from just Claude Code to having Codex support, and I'm loving running them side by side. They see things from different angles, make different UX choices, find bugs the other one doesn't, etc.

Just having the model variety is helpful, it is my default way to work now for every prompt I submit.

Check out Crystal, similar but open source https://github.com/stravu/crystal

I do this every day! In fact, I built a new type of IDE around this (https://github.com/stravu/crystal) and I can never go back.

Does anybody have something like this but usable in a remote environment like a self-hosted k8s?

Specifically, I'm looking for something I can leave running while sporadically connecting from a remote VSCode or electron app.

I've built something very similar but am further along (https://github.com/stravu/crystal). I understand the desire to do your own thing, but if you are interested in joining forces and contributing I would love to have you. I think we were thinking along very similar lines.

I tried your project in my exploration and ran into an issue but I can't quite remember what it was. Anyways, I would be interested in connecting and learning more about your project, I dropped my X handle in the first issue on my Github repo

I love this type of tool, and I like that there are several people and companies taking a stab at it. Either of you or any other author of a similar tool: please add support for OpenCode [0]!

I use Crystal which archives all my old claude code conversations, I've had to do this a few times when I threw out code that I later realized I needed.

Claude Code archives Claude Code conversations. "claude -r" - or go to equivalent of "~/.claude/sessions" or something like that

I'm going to use this for all of my Slack replies

Aha, thank you!

A new type of development environment for working with agents

https://github.com/stravu/crystal

It supports Claude Code and Codex, but has you constantly working on multiple features in Git worktrees. This way you are always able to stay busy while waiting on your agents.

It has built in tools for review, such as a diff viewer, and a quick button to run your application in different worktrees for testing. It has completely transformed the way I work.

Yeah I didn't realize there was also a Ruby dialect called Crystal until we had already launched. Not that I could think of a better name anyways.

honestly, crystal is a lot more prominent than you realise; you're going to continue having this issue. worth at least thinking about rebranding while you're still at 0.3

We've added support for Codex in Crystal, meaning you can now run Codex sessions alongside Claude Code in isolated git worktrees for parallelized development.
