What issue are you seeing?
I just 68% of my weekly limit by asking codex to cat a 350 line file. This is ridiculous. I expect a reset of my usage and I expect it tonight. I'm on day 1 and haven't done anything and already 68% gone. This was never an issue until I downloaded the update.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Download latest codex cli and watch your tokens get destroyed instantly.
