Evidence Sources

Chat history access: confirmed.
Timeline and token counters were extracted from /Users/curiobot/.codex/state_5.sqlite (`threads` table).
Raw rollouts were read from /Users/curiobot/.codex/sessions/2026/*/*/rollout-*.jsonl.
Filesystem artifacts found:
/Users/curiobot/.codex (~84 MB, sessions + state)
/Users/curiobot/Library/Application Support/Codex (desktop app data)
Codex workspaces under /Users/curiobot/Documents/CODEX - GAME and /Users/curiobot/Downloads/CODEX-PROJECTS.

Method

Token estimate: sum of threads.tokens_used in state_5.sqlite. This is the local Codex counter and can differ from API billing totals.
Lines of code: counted from heredoc write actions in rollout tool calls (`cat > file <
Projects contributed: unique project folders inferred from absolute file write paths in Codex rollouts (23 folders).
Honesty check: Codex wins tokens by a wide margin, but does not beat Claude on session count, project count, or LOC in this measured window.
