Try Codex instead. Much greener pastures overall

I do love my subagents and I wrote an entire Claude Code audio hook system for a11y but this would be still rather compelling if Codex weren't also somewhat of an a11y nightmare. It does some weird thing with ... maybe terminal repaints or something else that ends up rereading the same text over and over. Claude Code does this similarly but Codex ends up reading like ... all the weird symbols and other stuff? window decorations? and not just the text like CC does. They are both hellish but CC slightly? less so... until now.

Is it as bad with the Codex app, or VS Code plugin?

They are much more responsive on GitHub issues than Anthropic so you could also try reporting your issue there

Hey -- we take accessibility seriously, and want Claude Code to work well for you. This is why we have repurposed verbose mode to do what you want, without the other verbose output. Please give it a try and let me know what you think.

> we take accessibility seriously

Do you guys have a screen reader user on the dev team?

Is verbose mode the same as the old mode, where only file paths are spoken? Or does it have other text in it? Because I tried to articulate, and may have failed. More text is usually bad for me. It must be consumed linearly. I need specific text.

Quality over quantity

"Is verbose mode the same as the old mode, where only file paths are spoken?" -- yes, this is exactly what the new verbose mode is.

And how to get to the old verbose mode then...?

Hit ctrl+o

Wait so when the UI for Claude Code says “ctrl + o for verbose output” that isn’t verbose mode?
