What steps can reproduce the bug?

Hello Codex team,

Thanks for all your work on the product. I wanted to share two things I’ve noticed:

1. Explanation quality

Codex’s answers tend to be concise but often feel less intuitive or vivid than those generated by Claude. I’d
love to see more direct, example-driven explanations that make the reasoning easier to follow.

1. VS Code extension performance

The VS Code Codex extension responds noticeably slower than the command-line version on the same tasks. This lag
makes the editor workflow less efficient. It would be great if the extension could match the CLI’s responsiveness.

Thanks for your time!
