when I authenticate codex cli shows my account as being on the Free tier, when in fact I am a Plus account:
/status
╭─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮

consequently I am unable to use the tool, as I am presented with this error message:
``■ To use Codex with your ChatGPT plan, upgrade to Plus: https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing.``
What steps can reproduce the bug?

Login and then send a prompt
What is the expected behavior?
I can send prompts and interact with the service :)
