where can i see my usage like that

@tibo-openai I saw your reddit posts and such, but something is still wonky it seems. I did ~30 cloud tasks and the following CLI work (2 sessions) and hit my 5-hour on Pro? :(

l1 is Primary, l2 is secondary. And the random secondary of 23% makes me curious too....Really scratching my head and very saddened.

as of 4.30am UTC I have 1.5 hours left until my 5-hour limit resets. So I guess it reset around row #2? I probably had less cloud tasks run than my quoted 30 in that 5-hour too.

Change the drop down to Weekly

Update... goodness... two small tasks and it uses all of my usage?

I just burned my next 5-hour usage in about 60 mins..These are 'end of session' stats just for a glance.

And about two dozen cloud messages. Again this is on Pro too. :(

I am on .49 still, as I really fear the updates with a lot of these issues for the record. But I also see duplicating token_count entries in rollout like this constantly (some are duplicate token counts...about 10% in a sample of a few hours??):

Hit my weekly in like three or four five hour limits. Locked out til my pro is supposed to renew in six days. Guess that makes my decision to downgrade from pro easier. Considering a charge back with the bank given the mid term rug pull.

I just got home and sat down looking at the numbers...This is really _stupid_. I am under 24 hours into my week and hosed. And again, mucking with this stuff coming into a weekend..I love you guys pouring your heart and soul into this stuff, and I'm sure it wasn't your call to push to prod on a Friday, but W T F. And it's definitely broke as Web keeps flirting with me being at my quota, and near my quota, randomly. Hopefully GPT isn't doing the math on the backend here, as we know 3+7=banana randomly... 👎

Per day breakdown per Codex usage report JSON (which doesnt even add up to 100% ??? )

{ "data": [ { "date": "2025-11-01", "product_surface_usage_values": { "cli": 4.734244660872603, "vscode": 0.0, "web": 19.14151781164927, "slack": 0.0, "sdk": 0.0, "exec": 0.0, "github_turn": 0.06114338122898196, "github_code_review": 0.7460948304726966 } }, { "date": "2025-11-02", "product_surface_usage_values": { "cli": 5.380617548150413, "vscode": 0.0, "web": 39.7206329795752, "slack": 0.0, "sdk": 0.0, "exec": 0.0, "github_turn": 0.0, "github_code_review": 0.0 } } ], "units": "percent" }

And via the 'usage' JSON:

{ "plan_type": "pro", "rate_limit": { "allowed": true, "limit_reached": false, "primary_window": { "used_percent": 0, "limit_window_seconds": 18000, "reset_after_seconds": 18000, "reset_at": 1762147153 }, "secondary_window": { "used_percent": 100, "limit_window_seconds": 604800, "reset_after_seconds": 521436, "reset_at": 1762650589 } }, "credits": { "unlimited": false, "balance": "0", "approx_local_messages": [ 0, 0 ], "approx_cloud_messages": [ 0, 0 ] } }

And just like that, now I have an extra two hours added to my "week":

About 90 mins ago:

Resets Nov 8, 2025 7:09 PM

Now:

Resets Nov 8, 2025 9:02 PM

It didn't even change to an even 2 hour jump....What the heck?

Edit: Now it's back to 7:09:50 ish, it seems to hop around from 1-3 seconds of that so far now that I'm watching it via script.

So radio silence all day after all those google docs and reddit posts and all.. Really wish @tibo-openai or Embiricos would share something. Even an ack would be nice?? I saw this https://community.openai.com/t/issue-with-gpt-5-codex-limits-despite-having-pro-subscription/1359497/62 posted just before 7am Eastern today (Monday) but nada. Just tons and tons of folks with the same questions/concerns/complaints.

@techjoec, check out the update in this issue.

Thanks for your post. We're providing updates related to this issue in this thread. I'm going to close this issue to reduce duplication.

@etraut-openai thank you all for your hard work
