Description

The Turkish (tr) UI shows the percent sign twice on the usage progress line.

  • Header (correct): %9 kullanım hakkı kaldı
  • Progress line (incorrect): %%9 kaldı

Expected %9 kaldı, but it prints %%9 kaldı — the % gets duplicated somewhere in that string.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Set the app language to Turkish.
  2. Open the usage/rate-limit popup.
  3. Compare the header line with the progress-bar line below it.

Environment: Codex desktop app, tr locale, observed 2026-09-12.

Screenshots attached showing the same bug at %9/%%9 and %8/%%8.

Research direction

Start at the usage/rate-limit popup and the Turkish (tr) locale entry, comparing the header and progress-line formatting. Confirm the progress line renders one percent sign for values such as 8 and 9, while the header remains unchanged.
