What issue are you seeing?

I had three usage limit resets available and used one when the usage limit displayed at https://chatgpt.com/codex/cloud/settings/analytics#usage was 0%. When I refreshed the page, it jumped up to 100%. A few seconds later, it went down again to ~5% while one codex agent was working in the background. However, it should be possible to eat up that much of the global weekly usage that quickly.

Also, /status shows conflicting information, see the attached screenshot.

This issue is critically blocking my progress.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Check the usage limit via the UI
  2. Trigger a usage limit reset
  3. Check the usage limit again via UI or /status

What is the expected behavior?
