Anthropic sent a download notice to development trying to overturn the engineering tool for encoding

In the battle between two instruments for encoding “agent” – anthropic Claude Code and on Openai Codex Cli – The latter seems to encourage more reputation for developers than the first. This is at least in part because Anthropic has issued notifications to remove a developer who is trying to turn the CLUDE engineering code, which is under a more restrictive license for use by Codex CLI.

Claude Code and Codex CLI are duel tools that achieve much of the same thing: allow developers to take advantage of the power of AI models working in the cloud to perform different encoding tasks. Anthropic and Openai released them within months – each company competes to capture a valuable Mindshare developer.

The source code for the Codex CLI is available under Apache 2.0 license, which allows distribution and commercial use. This is in contrast to Claude Code, which is linked to the Anthropic trade license. This limits how it can be modified without the explicit permission of the company.

Anthrop also “froze” the source code for Claude code. In other words, the Claude Code source code is not easily accessible. When a The developer defines it and released the GitHub source code, Anthropic submitted a Dmca complaint – Copyright notice that wants the removal of the code.

Developers In social media I wasn’t satisfied With this move, which said it compared adversely to the Codex Cli Openai Rollout. During the week or so after the release of Codex CLI, Openai combined dozens of proposals for developers into the tool base of the instrument, including the one that allows Codex Cli Tap AI models from competitive suppliers – including anthrop.

Anthrop did not answer a request for comment. To be fair to the laboratory, Claude Code is still in beta (And some buggy); The anthropic may release the source code under a license in the future. Companies have many reasons to mix code, with security reasons being one of them.

This is a little surprising PR victory for Openai, which in recent months has deviated from open source editions in favor of own, locked products. It may be emblematic for a broader displacement in the approach of the laboratory; Openai’s Executive Director Sam Altman Early this year said He believed that the company was on the “wrong side of history” when it comes to open code.
