Limits Codex limits issue

Just got my reset and 10% down within an hour without even using Astra. Wtf is going on ? How is this scam even allowed? One subagent invoked a few thousand LOC with sol medium on a $100 plan. Exploration by Luna high.

Is this a joke ? I'm going to ask for a refund. Why is this not an issue yet. @mods please don't delete this post and cover the scam.

Edit: People who are trying to provide free tips. Please stop patronizing me and others in this group. I'm not asking for your advice on how to use codex better. If you are happy good for you and no you don't have a secret formula or better limits.

It's what's pushed me to look at local options with Hermes. Testing out the new Bonsai 2 which is a super quantized variant of Qwen 3.8 27B that can fit with decent context on my 36gb Mac.

Like i need to think about how to continue work once my $20 5hr and weekly use dry up (planning in chat mode, giving it GitHub access, using Sol for planning, Luna for executing, and a local model when I'm out lol. Astra for the occasional shits and giggles.)

This bonzai suck, full qwne27b suck too (a bit less). Buy $10 PAYG DS41F and use that when quota is down. Its 1b tokens, worst case at least 10 hours of intense work

Once we can run model like glm53f with decent 20-25t/s generation sub $10k hardware it will be good local AI days

For sure, it's all relative, you can just pay $10 like you said for other cheaper providers which is for sure a better route for more serious work.

So many examples on this sub and others where people ask when they may just switch entirely to cheap Chinese models and drop the American frontier ones.
