I've been iterating on scripts/check_cloudflare_pages.py, and this one ended up being a pretty clean example of where Claude currently feels stronger than Codex for TUI / UI design.

Codex got the script started and helped shape the core deployment-status workflow, but when it came to making the terminal output feel actually polished, especially across both the short and verbose views, Claude was noticeably better. At its best Codex still seems to struggle a bit with this kind of presentation work, so I ended up handing the UI pass over to Claude even though Codex had started the script.

This grows out of Cloudflare Build Notifications via Email Routing and Email Worker, but I’m now moving the Email Worker out of the Cloudflare dashboard editor and into Git in NicholasClooney/cloudflare-email-to-webhook-worker. The goal is to keep the worker version controlled, review changes before deploys, test locally, and configure it with Wrangler instead of only editing it in the Cloudflare web UI. Right now it is still mostly Wrangler init plus the example email worker, but that is a solid foundation to build from.
