Every startup gives "Approaching rate limits", actually limits are ways off #7126

Closed as duplicate

Description

@il13h

What version of Codex is running?

codex-cli 0.63.0

What subscription do you have?

Plus

Which model were you using?

gpt-5.1-codex-max

What platform is your computer?

Linux 6.6.87.2-microsoft-standard-WSL2 x86_64 unknown

What issue are you seeing?

Every time I start Codex with "codex resume", it gives me the "Approaching rate limits" prompt and suggests I change to mini model. This happens regardless how many tokens I have available in my plan. I just choose to continue with current model and everything then works fine. Surely something is just gone askew in my installation but I don't know how to find out what. Problem happened also on previous versions, I believe it started 1-2 weeks ago.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  • Run "codex resume" to start Codex in my environment
  • Get the unnecessary prompt

What is the expected behavior?

Expected behavior is not to get the prompt suggesting model change, since it is not correct in my situation.

    Put this in your config.toml:

    [notice]
    hide_rate_limit_model_nudge = true

    Thanks for reporting. I'm going to close this issue in favor of #7354, which is the same underlying problem.
