Additional context:
This does not look like a local installation/network issue:
codex doctorreportsoverallStatus: okHTTP 101 Switching ProtocolsThis looks more like an entitlement/quota/subscription mapping issue between ChatGPT Pro and Codex CLI/plugin.
I also noticed similar reports were detected as potential duplicates, especially #29948, which seems to show the same pattern with a valid paid subscription and a healthy local Codex setup.
Could you please confirm whether my account is being correctly recognized as Pro by Codex, and whether the reported usage limit is expected for my subscription?
Now works fine. I don't understand anything :S
