Codex damages projects due to rate limits #44436

Open

Description

@nrodemund

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.901.51231

What subscription do you have?

Plus

What platform is your computer?

Windows 11

What issue are you seeing?

The prices/token usage for Astra (low) got so expensive, that even 50% leftover rate limit may fail. Codex does not check before and interrupts work, effectively damaging the project.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Any codex prompt has this behaviour, at GPT 6 (low) in a plus subscription it may happen at 50% leftover usage.

What is the expected behavior?

No project damage on rate limit.
