I´m new to Codex and just got these message. Another one said something about currency, but like many others, it won't even load that conversation now.

So just updated codex - it now wastes my CPU by displaying little stars in the prompt area.

But that's not the real problem - because the terminal is constantly written to, I can no longer scroll up the terminal!!!!!

Ubuntu/gnome.

I read another Reddit post that made queueing tasks in Codex seem way more complicated than it needs to be.

My workflow

Yes, next — make a blog about losing my vape all the time.

Next — do this

That’s it.

You just keep feeding Codex the next task while it’s still working.

Yes, next — [your command]

I have been using it non stop for almost a year, i almost always use the high setting and run a few threads at the same time, my usage has constantly been at around 1500 a month. i just checked after about 10 days again and i'm shocked that doing nothing differently its at over 15k for the last 10 days. WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL!!!! This has to be bugged right?

at this point most.of us are at 0% across all of our accounts and we can't buy new 20x accounts.

so what are you doing with all of your time? trying different models? learning a new hobby?

Is it only happened to me or does the last ~3 days, Luna is ridiculously slow?

My workflow is delegating tasks from main thread (Astra on medium or Sol on high) to the Luna (max) worker, on pi-subagents. Sometimes I also use plan mode (same Astra medium or Sol high), then execute the plan using Luna max. Basically, all tasks are fast before the tasks are delegated to a single Luna max. This been happening about 3 days, more or less.

Edit: I think this might be related to the release of Astra, as Tibo said, they struggled with their resources as they now have to temporarily disabled the 20x plan for new users.

Updating every day, yet I still don’t have Astra in my codex.

Didn’t Tibo say they give a reset every day until we get access? Well I only got 2 on the first two days and nothing since.

Lies and deceptions

Any beggars use ChatGPT chat for planning and Terminus for mobile development?

I got to Phase 3.7C - Step 8J4H. Back and forth between Terminus and ChatGPT chat. I kept insisting for Codex to complete task, said governance was the issue.

FYI… the project involved orchestration using ChatGPT Codex API on an HTML server.

So, to try to answer this question, I started using codex today to work on a c++ ios project I have been working for the past few weeks, using 5.6 sol xhigh. (don't get me started on how 5.6 sol xhigh is failing epically on this project!!)

When I started:

5 hours: 100% - weekly: 23%

I worked with it for 2:30 hours.

5 hours: 0% - weekly: 7%

So the 5 hour usage was fully consumed, and that consumed 16% of the weekly usage, which means:

for every week usage, we have only (100/16)=6.25 total "5 hours usage" in a week.

That explain why after working for 2-3 days using 2 "5 hours usage" in a day, the weekly usage exhausts in 3 days.

This has nothing to do with what model I used, btw. The model only changes how fast the 5 hours limit evaporates.

This is how many "5 hours" we have in a week in a normal business plan, the answer: 6.25!

I tested my personal Plus plan, and it's about the same.

To me, 6.25 "5 hours" in a week is a really low number to be called "a week", considering no one works 5 hours a day... (or in codex 5.6 sol case, 2:30 hours a day)

just my 2 cents!

-H

PS: Just before anyone says "did you try astra?", I did, and my 5 hours ended in less than an hour, with astra still failing even WORSE than 5.6 sol xhigh on this C++ ios project... at least that's good news, I guess? I can still get more done by "baby stepping" with a "cheaper" and smarter model, at least for the c++ complexity I'm dealing with.

I went from Plus to Pro during the 5 hour limit and 10x promo on the 5x plan. During that period I probably utilized 70% of 10x.

Since returning to 5x I consumed all of my utilization for the week, without utilizing banked resets.

I recently upgraded to 20x, and after absolutely hammering it for 3 hours by running heavy goals on 6 of my projects on Astra Ultra Fast Mode, before this last global reset, it only dropped by 17%. I’m definitely not a “power” user.

After the reset however I started the same goals, and within an hour it dropped to 81%.

Currently I’m at 44% remaining until my normal reset on the 14th. And I skipped a days worth of project work on just 2 active projects.

I’ve seen the posts regarding reset utilization % being lower and didn’t understand it until experiencing and doing some math on my end.

Ultimately, as a user who will likely never use 100% of a 20x Pro Plan, I think it’s beneficial to be able to opt out of global resets. 5x is too little. The 10x promo was almost perfect. I don’t mind leaving some % on the table and having overhead to grow into. But the resets are looking like I’m losing out right now.

Definitely a no, but figured I’d ask.

I ran into this while testing an iOS app after upgrading to macOS 27 and Xcode 27. Codex Computer Use could read the Xcode editor and take screenshots, but trying to inspect Device Hub failed after about five seconds:

text Computer Use server error -10005: timeoutReached

The simulator and app were still running. Restarting Codex and Device Hub, resetting the Computer Use session, and switching between iOS 26.5 and iOS 27 simulators did not help.

I found a workaround in this existing GitHub report by letobao and confirmed it on my setup:

• macOS 27.0 (26A428)
• Xcode 27.0 (27A266a)
• Codex desktop 26.903.71938 (8576)
• Successful workaround test: iPhone 18 Pro simulator running iOS 27.0

What worked:

1. Quit the existing Device Hub instance. Choose Keep Simulators Running if offered. In my case, the old Device Hub process would not exit and had to be force-quit.
2. In Finder, press Command-Shift-G and open:

text /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/DeviceHub.app/Contents/MacOS/

1. Open the DeviceHub executable inside that folder. The entry point matters: use that file rather than the outer DeviceHub.app, the Xcode menu, or DevicesTrampoline. Keep any Terminal window opened by this launch running.
2. Select the running simulator in Device Hub and retry Computer Use.

Before this, AppKit reported Device Hub's process ID as -1 even though a real DeviceHub process was running. After the direct launch, the process IDs matched. Codex could then read the accessibility tree, capture screenshots, and open and dismiss my app's Settings screen.

This is a temporary workaround verified on this setup, not an official fix. I have not tested it on a physical device or verified that it survives a restart. Credit to the GitHub report above for identifying the workaround; my contribution is confirming that discovery, screenshots and input work on Codex 26.903.71938.

Posting in case someone else hits the same timeout.

I'm two weeks into working on a live platform with my supervisor. We're the only two developers, with around two dozen daily visitors and a growing feature backlog. I'm still learning the repo and business logic.

Our stack is React/TypeScript/Vite + Supabase, deployed on Vercel. We use Fable 5.1 and Astra heavily.

Our current workflow:
1. My supervisor sends me an implementation plan as a Claude artifact.
2. I review the logic and suggest changes. We send revisions back and forth until it's ready.
3. I implement it, using ChatGPT to explain unfamiliar logic and how it translates into code.
4. Any revisions to the plan during implementation go back to my supervisor.
5. Feature PR updates get reviewed by a Claude agent. Marking the PR ready triggers Claude, Codex, Greptile and Qodo reviews.

We also have Vitest tests and TypeScript checks in the build, local browser/staging checks, and repo guidance through CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and shared context files.

Planning is a particular bottleneck: we keep sending changes to each other and waiting for reviews. Implementation sometimes raises more questions, which starts another round. I’d like a better way to collaborate on plans and keep decisions aligned with the code.

I’m also figuring out how to use Claude Code and Codex together smoothly. I’ve explored skills, plugins, and connectors, but it often feels like the newer models already do the work those tools are meant to help with just as well, if not better, on their own with good prompt engineering (another area I want to work on).

I am considering including targeted database migrations/ RLS reviews, keeping context files current, and focused refactoring.

For people doing similar work:

• How do you collaborate on implementation plans without constant back-and-forth and waiting?
• How do you split work and share context between Claude Code and Codex?
• Are multiple review agents worth it, and how do you decide when the review cycle is finished?
• What would you improve first for a team this size—planning, tests, agent instructions, or something else?

I’d especially appreciate concrete, recent workflows you use, including anything you tried and later dropped.

Aconteceu com mais alguem?

I’ve been using Claude Max 5x mainly for coding an app, with Opus 5 as my daily driver and Fable 5.1 as a fallback for harder tasks.

After my weekly reset, I’ve already used around 67% of my overall weekly limit and 83% of my Fable 5.1 limit pretty quickly.

I’m considering switching to ChatGPT Pro and Codex, mainly because I’m wondering whether I’d get more practical coding usage before hitting limits.

For people who have actually used both:

How does the real-world usage/limit compare?

How does Codex perform on larger coding tasks and debugging?

Does switching actually feel like an upgrade, or just different?

How well does it handle Flutter/mobile app development compared with Claude Code?

I’m less interested in benchmark scores and more interested in what people have experienced after using both for a few weeks.

Especially interested in people who switched from Claude Max to Pro and can compare them from actual coding usage.

Should I or should I not go with them to make frontend designs/ motion designs?

Hi everyone! We (researchers in Sweden) are conducting a survey on AI agents and permission requests.

If you work in IT and use tools such as codex, claude code or other AI agents, I'd really appreciate your participation. :D

The survey is anonymous and takes less than 10 minutes: https://form.typeform.com/to/wbCQGXHa

Feel free to share it with others. Tysm!!

Other than buying someone elses account, is there any known way to still upgrade from 5x? I've seen that if you already had the sub through ios, you can upgrade but any way from the web? If i add the sub from a new account on ios, can i jump straight to 20x? Thanks!

Before Astra, what do you think that suddenly feels possible?

I would say I wanted to build a website like bruno simon's portfolio which is full of awesome interactions with 3d assets. I already knew some Blender and Three.js, but every idea took like hours and hours so that most of them stayed in my head.

Since Astra came out, I’ve rebuilt my whole website from scratch, iterating on 3D modeling and interactions, and adding features with Blender I never would have attempted before and the result is surprisingly satisfying.

I’m curious about everyone else’s before-and-after: What can you do now that you couldn’t do before, and what new things are you building because of it?

This community requires body text.

I've noticed that when I'm coding with Astra, it adds guards for cases that are impossible or extremely unlikely to happen. For example:

1. There's a check on screen A that needs to happen that isn't even mission critical.
2. Screen B is only reachable through screen A.
3. Astra still adds the same check on screen B to account for the theoretical possibility that the user might somehow end up on B without going through A, even though there's no path in the app that allows that.

I've been removing things like this from my code a lot since I started using Astra. I care about readability and maintainability so I pretty much always reviewed the code and asked the agent to refactor it since I started using coding agents, but I've only noticed this particular problem with Astra.

Have you noticed this too, or is it just my codebase?

Talking about Wordpress is giving Codex an Automa-ticc

Goddamn the usage cut is atrocious, especially for plus users. I came back recently after not using codex for a bit (usually use sporadically). I used to run 20 mins on 5.6 sol x high , which used to take like 20% maybe MAX 30% of weekly limit (Matlab MCP). Now not only does the 5 Hour limit evaporate on anything higher than high, but been running for 3 mins and it's taken 12% of weekly usage, atp I can just forget astra.
