Every startup gives "Approaching rate limits", actually limits are ways off

What version of Codex is running?

codex-cli 0.63.0

What subscription do you have?

Plus

Which model were you using?

gpt-5.1-codex-max

What platform is your computer?

Linux 6.6.87.2-microsoft-standard-WSL2 x86_64 unknown

What issue are you seeing?

Every time I start Codex with "codex resume", it gives me the "Approaching rate limits" prompt and suggests I change to mini model. This happens regardless how many tokens I have available in my plan. I just choose to continue with current model and everything then works fine. Surely something is just gone askew in my installation but I don't know how to find out what. Problem happened also on previous versions, I believe it started 1-2 weeks ago.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  • Run "codex resume" to start Codex in my environment
  • Get the unnecessary prompt

What is the expected behavior?

Expected behavior is not to get the prompt suggesting model change, since it is not correct in my situation.
