Try the TypeScript codex CLI with the gpt-5-codex model with reasoning always set to high, or GPT-5 Pro with max reasoning. Both are currently undeniably better than Claude Opus 4.1 or Sonnet 4.5 (max reasoning or otherwise) for all code-related tasks. Much slower but more reliable and more intelligent.

I've been a Claude Code fanboy for many months but OpenAI simply won this leg of the race, for now.
