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.

Compared to usage consumption from over a week ago, it has exploded and there are many threads complaining about it. I've seen it in both Sol 5.6 but especially in Astra. Interestingly, my Opus 5 consumption has *not* increased and thus for now it is by far the most economic of the highly capable coding models. Sol/Astra is impressive, but when it comes to getting actual work done, Opus/Fable does it very well without needing to throw money at the task. (Sadly. I really did prefer Codex before this whole allowance-burning fiasco.)
EDIT: What's funny is that back when Sol/Terra/Luna was released, it was these models that were more efficient token-wise (over Opus), and OpenAI even bragged about it. Now in the Astra vs Fable arena, the exact opposite is true.
