TL;DR

Review the usage patterns and settings in the Codex CLI to identify potential causes for the unexpected high usage.

Guidance

  • Check the upload history and thread details (e.g., 019d7b33-0b06-7432-beaf-d9654a2706c3) to see if there were any unusual or large uploads that could have contributed to the high usage.
  • Verify the model settings, specifically the 5.4 high model, to ensure it is configured correctly and not causing excessive usage.
  • Investigate if there are any automated processes or scripts running in the background that could be using the Codex CLI and contributing to the high usage.
  • Consider reaching out to support or checking the documentation for the plus subscription to see if there are any known issues or limitations that could be causing the problem.

Notes

The lack of information about the platform, terminal emulator, and expected behavior makes it difficult to provide a more specific solution. Additionally, without more details about the usage patterns and settings, it is hard to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Review and adjust usage patterns and settings to prevent unexpected high usage, as the current information does not suggest a clear upgrade path or version-specific fix.
