What variant of Codex are you using?

What feature would you like to see?

With the switch to usage-based pricing for business plans and the release of 5.5, I find myself spending enough money that I have to start worrying a little bit about cost control. It is currently very hard to even know which threads I'm spending the most money on. Adding back the /cost command would be the easiest way to do so. Alternatively, the /status command could display credit usage of the current thread.

TL;DR

Reintroducing the /cost command or modifying the /status command to display credit usage could help with cost control.

Guidance

  • Consider reaching out to the development team to request the reintroduction of the /cost command or the modification of the /status command.
  • Review the current usage-based pricing model for business plans to understand how costs are calculated.
  • Explore alternative methods for tracking thread costs, such as manual logging or third-party tools.

Notes

The issue lacks technical details, making it difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Reach out to the development team to request a feature update, as there is no clear indication of a fixed version that addresses this issue.
