I stopped choosing between Claude Code, Codex, and Antigravity, and one shared folder lets them pick up each other's work

Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google are major players in the coding agent market, with products like Claude Code, Codex, and Antigravity capable of opening folders on a computer to build projects, according to XDA Developers. Dev.to notes that different tools suit different tasks; for example, Cursor is recommended when the primary focus is reviewing diffs within an editor, while Codex is suggested for leaving a GitHub trail during background tasks. Claude Code is described by Dev.to as a tool for executing tasks in a repo from a terminal.

The Chinese startup DeepSeek has introduced an open-source prototype called Super-Agent to compete with U.S. tools like Claude Code, Investing.com reports. This agent is designed to participate proactively in development workflows by monitoring group conversations among developers to identify and propose solutions to coding problems without direct instructions.

At Anthropic, engineering manager Felix Rieseberg has announced the abandonment of traditional coding interviews, as reported by TechRadar. Rieseberg stated that because AI can demonstrate a superior grasp of coding, these assessments no longer reveal meaningful information about candidates. He advises junior engineers to focus on making an impact and understanding their company rather than traditional coding challenges.
