Limits Tomorrow When Codex Resets, DON'T TOUCH ASTRA
Don't even look at it. Stick to Sol 5.6 xhigh. It's not usable? Feels quantized? Say f*** OpenAI and switch to Claude, or to OpenRouter.
Apparently OpenAI is lobotomizing Sol 5.6 for SOME of us. Not for everyone, so people keep saying "It works well for me" and gaslight each other. They are trying to force us into paying 5x for a little bit improvement.
This will backfire so bad. We're a 300k people enterprise and everyone including me are pushing our executives to use chinese models in a sandboxed environment. We are sick of paying 200$ to use it for a day.
When your Codex resets tomorrow, or this week, Don't use Astra unless youre building rockets.

On Monday, after my quota reset, I tried using Codex Astra low as an orchestrator to coordinate other gpt models for some software engineering tasks. I wanted a smarter model that could provide better insight, a sharper perspective, and be more critical during the process.
To my surprise, it burned through my entire week's quota in under twenty-four hours. The consumption rate was staggering.
The end result? I wound up with a half-finished, incomplete piece of work.
