# Claude orchestrating Codex agents is the workflow I didn't know I needed for coding

**[XDA Developers](https://daily.dev/sources/xda-developers)** · 5 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A hands-on experience report using a plugin that puts Claude in the role of orchestrator for OpenAI Codex agents. Claude handles planning, verification, journaling, and commits, while Codex handles implementation. The workflow caught three bugs the author missed — a missing dependency, a timing issue, and an undefined term — and used stub modules to enforce dry-run safety. The orchestration also survived an accidental bad prompt thanks to persistent journaling. The tradeoff: better output quality but higher token cost and longer runtime, making it a selective rather than default tool.
