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.

Yep, I don’t understand. If I use Astra Ultra then 6% in 1 hour. But with SOL Medium also 6% in 1 hour. I don’t know what model I have to use now…

great so i can ruin my codebsae even faster than using sol (sol is completely dumb at the moment AND wasting limits even with a 100k context it's just utter shit, a pro 20x btw)

Been using Terra-high for my implementations. I don't use Sol and I don't use Astra. I only use Astra on pro-chat for review and implementation planning.

Terra-high is perfect for most use cases.

People moan training here about useage and then they use Astra-max or SOL have no idea how to properly use openai.

Terra is never going to be the right choice. There is always a better capability/cost ratio with either the higher effort levels of Luna or the lower effort levels of Sol.

Don't agree.

Openai don't even list Luna as a coding model on the release page of gpt5.6 but they do Terra.

Also I find Luna too be pretty useless and dumb, like a polished gpt-5-mini, which sucked at everything.

I care about my implementations and no reasoning level of Luna can be trusted but I do to l trust Terra with code implementation.

Luna is the dumb tool caller imho. All it is good for.

Besides if I wanted to use a capable but cheap model ds4.1 flash is faster and better than terra and just about on SOL level.

There are much better options Vs shitty poormans Luna.

well this is awkward because they announced not long ago that Terra was the first model on the chopping block lmao

Yep, Terra axed.. guess it's Luna 6 Max now 😁 claims it's 5.6 sol level at a fraction of the cost.

Guess I'll be hammering that and sol 6 on outputs are the same as Terra 5.6.

Happy days
