Traditional Chinese rate limit popover makes weekly 5% look like 5-hour remaining usage

What issue are you seeing?

This is a Codex App UI/localization clarity issue in the Traditional Chinese interface.

The rate limit popover currently shows a summary like:

剩餘的速率限制 5%
5 小時   23%   晚上 7:02
1 週     5%    4 月 29 日 

Because the summary and the bottom status chip both emphasize 5%, it is easy to misread the UI as saying that the 5-hour quota only has 5% remaining.

However, based on the detail rows, the intended meaning appears to be:

  • 5-hour quota remaining: 23%
  • weekly quota remaining: 5%
  • the summary is showing the most constrained quota, which is the weekly quota

The values themselves may be correct, but the summary label and layout make it easy to associate the 5% value with the wrong time window.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Open the Codex App.
  2. Set the UI language to Traditional Chinese.
  3. Use Codex until multiple rate limit windows are visible in the rate limit popover, for example:
  • 5-hour quota remaining: 23%
  • weekly quota remaining: 5%
  1. Open the rate limit popover from the bottom status bar.
  2. Observe that the popover summary and bottom status chip emphasize 5% without clearly indicating that this value belongs to the weekly quota.

Actual behavior:

The UI can be misread as saying that the 5-hour quota has only 5% remaining, even though the detail row shows the 5-hour quota has 23% remaining.

The issue is not that the quota values are necessarily wrong. The issue is that the summary percentage is visually prominent but not clearly tied to the 1 週 quota window.

No code snippet is applicable because this is a Codex App UI/localization clarity issue.

What is the expected behavior?

The summary should clearly indicate which quota window the highlighted percentage belongs to.
For example, instead of:

剩餘的速率限制 5%

it could say:

最受限額度:1 週剩餘 5%

or in English:

Most constrained quota: 1 week, 5% remaining

The bottom status chip could also include the quota window, for example:

本機作業:1 週剩餘 5%

instead of only showing:

本機作業 5%
