5hr Limit Maxed despite no use. #6357

Closed

Description

@g-pex-aerian

What version of the VS Code extension are you using?

0.5.36

What subscription do you have?

Plus

Which IDE are you using?

VS Code

What platform is your computer?

Mac

What issue are you seeing?

I have just opened VS Code to start my day's work and knew I was close to the Codex weekly limit so checked to see just how close (97% - I'm sure it was 99% yesterday?)

I've noticed that the 5hr limit is at 100%. I have not done any development at all today. All my accounts are MFA'd so the possibility of anyone else using my account is close to 0.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

I don't see how this can be reproduced but here is a screenshot of my Codex panel:

What is the expected behavior?

I would expect my 5hr rate limit to be at 0% when I have not used Codex for about 16hrs.

    Closing issue because I am a legitimate idiot. I've only just noticed from my screenshot that is remaining limit rather than used limit - I'm sure this has not always been the case?!

    We were reporting these values inconsistently across the CLI and VS Code Extension. We recently updated them to be consistent. Sorry for any confusion this caused.
