A full Mario Kart-style stage, title screen to finish check, from one prompt: Claude Code with Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5 (left) against two GPT-6 Astra runs in Codex at different thinking levels (center, right).

Each side pairs a coding harness with its own model, so harness and model differences are mixed. More Claude Code vs OpenAI Codex. All harness comparisons.
