I use Claude Opus for planning at high effort and Claude Sonnet 5 for coding at max effort.

Opus - planning/review + gpt spark med - implementation. Works better at lower cost.

I don't have a subscription to Codex, but it's good to know.

I've been using Fable for planning and Opus for coding

What plan are you on? Max?

Sonnet 5 Medium and GPT 5.5 Medium for coding.

I drop down to a Mini model for file-based tasks.

Codex keeps trying to revert me back to 5.6 but 5.6 seems to use too many tokens to do the same or slightly inferior job.

I am only on multiple $20 plans.
