Usage drains extremely fast with no workflow changes

What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

26.908.70816

What subscription do you have?

20x

What platform is your computer?

Microsoft Windows NT 10.0.26200.0 x64

What issue are you seeing?

Usage drains incredibly fast.

My 20x plan drains in under 24 hours now (since the beginning of September).

I have made no significant workflow changes, and I do not use Astra. The same workflows were lasting me the whole week previously.

My workflows are software engineering workflows- design, reviews, coding.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Run any software engineering workflows and watch the tokens drain away like crazy.

What is the expected behavior?

I would expect not to have unexpected changes in how tokens are burned when I don't have ANY workflow changes.

Additional information

It would be great if we had some communication about what kind of token usage we could expect from subscription plans, but I can understand why you would want to keep that opaque.

No source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the reported software-engineering workflows on the 20x plan while monitoring token usage, then compare the drain with the previously observed behavior. Done means identifying a reproducible cause for the rapid usage increase and documenting or verifying a fix.
