What issue are you seeing?
Astra 6 xHigh didn't make any code and ate 38% of my weekly limit
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Uploaded thread: 01a0871a-5ba5-72d3-a4e6-8e19024a8618
What is the expected behavior?
Model should be able to produce code

Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported usage with Codex CLI v0.153.4, model gpt-6-astra, and the PRO 5x subscription on macOS, then compare the observed consumption with the 30-second report. No repository file, test, or entry point is named, so the relevant accounting path and a suitable regression test still need to be located.
