ok i get how you are all using codex and all but like what are the best practices or things some of you which is like non-obvious at all??? stories, tips, and more thanks! : r/codex

Best practice is to ask GPT-5.2 (Non CODEX) HIGH or XHIGH to plan feature/module for you, design architecture and create EPIC and tasks. Either using GitHub CLI and upload it on GitHub as tasks or write .MD file with tasks and their statuses. How to implement it depends. You can use CODEX model (medium or HIGH) and give it this plan to implement. CODEX can one shot big tasks. When CODEX one shots it, ask to open PR. Ask another CODEX instance to review the PR and leave comments. When comments are resolved, merge PR. Or you can use faster "dumb" model such as Claude Code (OPUS) to implement plan by GPT-5.2 but in smaller iterations and with need to check it more carefully, because Claude can't one shot anything So you need to be more interactive. Depends on your preferences. P.s You can also ask GPT-5.2 to code, it will be slow, but really stable. P.s-2 Its all pretty obvious but working More on reddit.com
