Important update: my remaining usage has now dropped further to 1%.

Observed progression:

  • 18:40 local time: 10% remaining
  • 18:46: 7% remaining
  • Shortly afterward: 5% remaining
  • Latest check: 1% remaining

I have not intentionally started any new coding tasks, prompts, scheduled tasks, or subagents during this period. Codex was also fully quit using Command + Q during part of this time.

This means approximately 9% of my remaining allowance disappeared within a short period without any visible task explaining the consumption.

Please urgently inspect the server-side usage records associated with my account and this feedback ID. If this usage was deducted incorrectly, please restore the affected allowance.
