codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Inconsistent quota display and premature usage-limit error in Codex CLI 0.120.0 [1 comments, 2 participants]

• The red banner says Error running remote compact task: You've hit your usage limit. To get more access now, send a request to your admin or try again at Apr 13th, 2026 12:46 AM. The status UI and the error state do not agree. The limit warning, /status, and the error banner present different remaining quota values, which makes it hard to understand whether the account is actually out of quota or the client is reading stale/inconsistent state.

TL;DR

The inconsistent quota information and usage_limit_exceeded error may be resolved by checking the actual quota usage and limits through an admin request or waiting until the specified reset time.

Guidance

• Verify the current quota usage and limits through official channels or admin requests to determine the actual remaining quota.
• Compare the quota usage reported by the TUI status line, /status command, and the error banner to identify any discrepancies.
• Check if waiting until the specified reset time (Apr 13th, 2026 12:46 AM) resolves the usage_limit_exceeded error.
• Review the local session history to ensure that the quota usage is being accurately tracked and reported.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not involve code-related fixes.

Notes

The provided information suggests a potential issue with the Codex CLI's quota tracking and reporting mechanisms. However, without further details on the underlying system and quota management, it is difficult to provide a definitive solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Wait until the specified reset time (Apr 13th, 2026 12:46 AM) to see if the usage_limit_exceeded error is resolved, as the error banner suggests that the quota will be reset at this time.
