This worked for me:

The issue was a stale, cached authentication session in the local config (it was prioritizing an old/limited API Org that i have no idea where it came from nor what prompted it...? instead of my ChatGPT subscription).

  1. Kill lingering processes and remove the cached auth file:
pkill -f codex
rm ~/.codex/auth.json
  1. Start fresh (forcing no env vars to ensure a clean login):
env -u OPENAI_API_KEY -u OPENAI_ORGANIZATION codex
  1. Then just resign in with "Sign in with ChatGPT" when prompted.

Thanks for reporting. There was a temporary service issue that caused the responses API to incorrectly report rate limit errors when it shouldn't. The issue has been mitigated. Everything should be back to normal now. Apologies for the disruption.
