| Approach | Suitable use | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| ChatGPT | Understand a topic, prepare a project, work with supplied resources. | Account features, instruction scope and memory settings. |
| Claude | Use the same reading, writing or design task for comparison. | Same context and criteria; product resources and limits. |
| Codex / Claude Code | Read and edit a repository; run commands in a configured environment. | Actual access, test environment and change review. |
| Fully local model and tools | On-device processing when the model and tools support it. | Hardware memory, task quality and absence of remote calls. |
Give the selected solutions the same example. Record criteria met, errors, time spent correcting and displayed costs. Success on this example does not establish general superiority.
