I see {"detail":"The 'gpt-5.6-sol' model is not supported when using Codex with a ChatGPT account."} and You've hit your usage limit. Add credits to continue, or try again at 6 Aug 2026, 08:15 on an account that just got its plan upgraded. I can't use the Codex app for nothing, the usage is 100% available.

I can reproduce this on a renewed ChatGPT Pro ($200 / 20×) subscription.
Environment
v0.146.0gpt-5.6-solWhat happened
Immediately after renewing the subscription, selecting Sol in Codex CLI returned:
Signing out and signing back in did not fix it. Codex then switched the model from Sol to Terra and rejected the request with a usage-limit error:
However, the account still has usage available, and the same ChatGPT account can use
gpt-5.6-solsuccessfully in ChatGPT's web Work mode at the same time.Expected behavior
After a Pro renewal, Codex CLI should recognize the refreshed subscription/model entitlement and remaining usage consistently with ChatGPT Work mode. Logging out and back in should refresh the entitlement if it has become stale.
This looks like a cross-client entitlement/usage synchronization issue triggered by subscription expiration followed by renewal, rather than an actual usage-limit exhaustion.
Same symptom on ChatGPT Pro, reproduced 2026-08-07.
Environment

codex exec -m gpt-5.6-sol→ HTTP 400gpt-5.6-terraandgpt-5.6-lunasucceed with the exact same command, auth and config.The model name is already the variant form, so this is not the plain

~/.codex/models_cache.json, re-fetched minutes earlier under thissame ChatGPT auth, lists
gpt-5.6-solwithvisibility: "list"andsupported_in_api: true.The model-listing API advertises Sol for this account while the execution API rejects it.
As in the original report, this account was upgraded to Pro shortly before the first failure,
which points at entitlement propagation rather than anything client-side.
Same issue.
