Usage not decreasing at all #17455

I've been running ~25 parallel Codex CLI instances with exec for about two hours, and neither my 5h nor weekly limits have decreased even by 1%. Beyond that, the "Usage breakdown" in Codex Web doesn't show any activity for today (april 11) at all.

I'm not entirely sure what led to this. I've been using the base_instructions and developer_instructions config parameters, which I wasn't doing before. It could also be something else that isn't clear to me.

I might be missing something, but I've checked multiple times and believe something may be wrong on the backend side. Codex definitely recognizes usage on the account, because it starts counting down the 5h reset window (e.g., "4h 36m" instead of "5h"). But the 5h limit stays at 100% (and the weekly limit remains unchanged) even though similar usage was very noticeable yesterday.

I've tested this on two (pro) accounts, and both stay at 100% after a significant number of tokens used this way: user-yd2KvMYwDwnAw1P5XaRaJTD1 and user-dZfuXwn5gK9c3D8UUV4oV6B1.

Happy to provide any additional information or run further tests if that would help narrow down the issue.
