Stepping into agentic coding with Codex as my "pair programmer" was a genuine shift. I learned a lot—not just about automating code generation, but also about how you have to tightly steer, guide, and audit every line as things move at breakneck speed. I must admit, I sometimes lost track of what all the generated code was actually doing. But as the features seemed to work after a few iterations, I was satisfied—which is a bit concerning. Imagine if I approved a PR for a production-grade deployment without fully understanding what it was doing (and not a toy project like in this post).
Discussing requirements with Codex forced me to clarify features and spot logical pitfalls earlier. All those fast iterations meant I was constantly coaxing more helpful, less ambiguous code out of the model—making me rethink how to break features into clear, testable steps.

Did it buy me speed? Let's do some back-of-the-envelope math:
