Codex weekly limits hit on first prompt in VS Code extension #4444

Closed as duplicate

Description

@joeyda3rd

What version of the VS Code extension are you using?

0.5.15

Which IDE are you using?

VS Code

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26100.0 x64

What steps can reproduce the bug?

I use the CLI a lot in a windows power shell under WLS2. I am on the OpenAI plus plan. I have now attempted to use the codex vscode extension 3 times exactly and only one prompt at each attempt. Each time it runs a few seconds and then alerts me I have hit the weekly limits on the first prompt. The first two times, I just thought were a coincidence, but I have never once hit the weekly limit using the CLI in WSL. The third time I had barely used codex over the weekend and tried VS Code extension first thing on Monday and I immediately hit the weekly limits on the first prompt. I am certain that this extension is inflating the usage or causing my account to have incorrect timing or something. The CLI in WSL is then locked out as well.

What is the expected behavior?

    @joeyda3rd could you share a session id from /status in the CLI to help us investigate?
