Paid version (lowest levels) of both. Claude Sonnet 4; ChatGpt 4o; Code is MacOS.
Going around circles for things as simple as 'please mark the end of the script with #finish of script' and often leaving off parts of the script (Claude).
Failing to easily find missing braces tasks that are easy for a human.
Requesting that I run the sed command to count up the braces 'oh I see we need an extra "{" (but then doesn't even fix). Annoying.
Often requested to 'start a new chat limit reached'.
Can't properly handle coloring of text in the terminal figures out then forgets the fix later with other changes.
What are others experiencing?

What do you mean by this? Applescript isn't a super common language these days and you gotta acknowledge it's not what LLMs are finetuning on. You might be better off asking for a zsh script that does the same thing.
My experience with Claude has been positive as long as the code itself is broken down into ~500 SLOC or less in each module. Huge run-on programs don't seem to play nice with modern context windows.
