# Cursor vs Claude Code vs Codex — AI Coding Compared > In-depth comparison of the three leading AI coding tools in 2026. Covers pricing, context window, MCP support, agent capabilities, and best use cases for each platform. ## Install Paste the prompt below into your AI tool: # Cursor vs Claude Code vs Codex — AI Coding Compared (Guide) Companion guide to a 2026 prompt comparing Cursor, Claude Code and Codex CLI: pricing, MCP, agents, workflows and how to verify claims. ## Quick Use This asset is a **prompt** titled “Cursor vs Claude Code vs Codex — AI Coding Compared”. Ordinary users copy the original prompt text (the immutable evidence in this listing) into an AI chat, such as Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor's chat panel, and ask for the comparison, a recommendation for their workflow, or an updated table. Nothing is installed, no code runs, and the prompt itself makes no network requests. 1. Copy the complete original prompt, including the `## Quick Use` table, the feature/pricing tables, the FAQ and the `ZH` section. 2. Paste it into an AI chat and add your own context, for example: “I use Python and work solo; which tool should I start with?” 3. Ask for the output in the same structure (tables + FAQ) so it is easy to compare. ### Setup and inputs - **Required input:** the prompt itself. No files must exist, no install command is needed. - **Optional inputs:** your team size, budget, language/OS, whether you need MCP or CI/CD, and any tool you already pay for. - **Setup:** none. A chat window with a capable model is enough. If you want richer answers, add your repository description (not secrets or private code). ### Checking the output The prompt contains factual claims about third-party products (prices, free tiers, context windows, MCP support). Treat the model's answer as a draft, not as verified fact: - Re-check prices and free-tier limits on the vendors' own pricing pages. - Confirm MCP support and context-window numbers in the official documentation. - Confirm any install command before running it; commands shown in the prompt are examples, not tested instructions here. - Ask the model to mark each number with “verified on ” or “unverified”. - Missing information: if the model cannot cite a source, treat the claim as unverified and ask for the vendor page. ### Permissions and limitations No special permissions, credentials or API keys are required to use the prompt. The prompt itself executes nothing. However, any command it suggests (for example `npm install -g @openai/codex`, `/plugin marketplace add openai/codex-plugin-cc`, or `npx -y @maximhq/bifrost`) is a third-party action you would run in your own environment; review it and its license before running. Vendor prices, model names, limits and MCP support change frequently, so the comparison can become outdated. Third-party names and links belong to their owners. ### FAQ / 常见问题 **Q1: Do I need to install Claude Code, Cursor or Codex CLI to use this prompt?** No. The prompt is plain text for a chat model. The install commands inside it are only suggestions for the tools being compared. **Q2: Can I trust the pricing and feature tables?** No, not without checking. They reflect the author's 2026 snapshot; verify each number against the vendor's official page before making a purchase decision. ### Source attribution Source reviewed: (repository `openai/codex`, commit `dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597`, Apache-2.0). The snapshot also shows the asset's original title and description, which compare Cursor, Claude Code and Codex CLI. This companion guide was written from that supplied snapshot; the prompt's runtime behaviour was not tested. The installed asset's original entrypoint, files and metadata are unchanged. ## Complete upstream material

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.

--- ## Quickstart ### Installing and running Codex CLI Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI: ```shell curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh ``` Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI: ```shell powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex" ``` The standalone installers download from `https://releases.openai.com/codex` by default and fall back to GitHub Releases if a metadata or asset download is unavailable. To force GitHub Releases, set `CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM` to `false` (`0` and `no` are also accepted): ```shell curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM=false sh ``` ```powershell $env:CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM='false'; irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex ``` Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers: ```shell # Install using npm npm install -g @openai/codex ``` ```shell # Install using Homebrew brew install --cask codex ``` Then simply run `codex` to get started.
You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform. Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these: - macOS - Apple Silicon/arm64: `codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz` - x86_64 (older Mac hardware): `codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz` - Linux - x86_64: `codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz` - arm64: `codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz` Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., `codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`), so you likely want to rename it to `codex` after extracting it.
### Using Codex with your ChatGPT plan Run `codex` and select **Sign in with ChatGPT**. We recommend signing into your ChatGPT account to use Codex as part of your Plus, Pro, Business, Edu, or Enterprise plan. [Learn more about what's included in your ChatGPT plan](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/11369540-codex-in-chatgpt). You can also use Codex with an API key, but this requires [additional setup](https://developers.openai.com/codex/auth#sign-in-with-an-api-key). ## Docs - [**Codex Documentation**](https://developers.openai.com/codex) - [**Contributing**](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/docs/contributing.md) - [**Installing & building**](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/docs/install.md) - [**Open source fund**](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/docs/open-source-fund.md) This repository is licensed under the [Apache-2.0 License](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/LICENSE). ## Source and license [Source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/README.md) · [License](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/LICENSE) · `dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597` Apache License Version 2.0, January 2004 http://www.apache.org/licenses/ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION 1.

Codex CLI 是 OpenAI 推出的编码智能体，可在你的计算机上本地运行。

Codex CLI splash


如果你希望在代码编辑器（VS Code、Cursor、Windsurf）中使用 Codex，请在 IDE 中安装。
如果你想要桌面应用体验，请运行 codex app 或访问 Codex App 页面。
如果你在寻找 OpenAI 的云端智能体——Codex Web，请访问 chatgpt.com/codex。

--- ## 快速开始 ### 安装并运行 Codex CLI 在 Mac 或 Linux 上运行以下命令来安装 Codex CLI： ```shell curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh ``` 在 Windows 上运行以下命令以安装 Codex CLI： ```shell powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex" ``` 独立安装程序默认从 `https://releases.openai.com/codex` 下载，如果元数据或资产下载不可用，则回退到 GitHub Releases。要强制使用 GitHub Releases，请将 `CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM` 设置为 `false`（`0` 和 `no` 也可接受）： ```shell curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM=false sh ``` ```powershell $env:CODEX_INSTALLER_USE_RELEASES_OPENAI_COM='false'; irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex ``` Codex CLI 也可以通过以下包管理器安装： ```shell # Install using npm npm install -g @openai/codex ``` ```shell # Install using Homebrew brew install --cask codex ``` 然后只需运行 `codex` 即可开始。
你也可以前往最新的 GitHub Release，下载适合你平台的二进制文件。 每个 GitHub Release 都包含许多可执行文件，但实际上，你多半只需要以下其中之一： - macOS - Apple Silicon/arm64：`codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz` - x86_64（较老的 Mac 硬件）：`codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz` - Linux - x86_64：`codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz` - arm64：`codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz` 每个压缩包中只包含一个条目，其名称中已带有平台标识（例如 `codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`），因此解压后你多半想把它重命名为 `codex`。
### 结合 ChatGPT 方案使用 Codex 运行 `codex` 并选择 **Sign in with ChatGPT**。我们建议登录你的 ChatGPT 账户，以便在 Plus、Pro、Business、Edu 或 Enterprise 方案中使用 Codex。[进一步了解你的 ChatGPT 方案包含哪些内容](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/11369540-codex-in-chatgpt)。 你也可以使用 API 密钥来使用 Codex，但这需要[额外设置](https://developers.openai.com/codex/auth#sign-in-with-an-api-key)。 ## 文档 - [**Codex 文档**](https://developers.openai.com/codex) - [**贡献指南**](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/docs/contributing.md) - [**安装与构建**](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/docs/install.md) - [**开源基金**](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/docs/open-source-fund.md) 本仓库采用 [Apache-2.0 许可证](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/LICENSE) 授权。 ## 来源与许可证 [Source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/README.md) · [License](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597/LICENSE) · `dde5f8c5ae9b644c6882b3a48581ac317255d597` Apache License Version 2.0, January 2004 http://www.apache.org/licenses/ TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION 1.
