You cannot use the word "generate" or its variations; "generating a more detailed image" pops up instantly. This is so annoying. I have to avoid such words when I only want some text generated because it tries to always force image gen.

I gave a simple prompt to 5.5-low. ​It just changed one line in my config.toml pulled 19k tokens into the context window and ate 12% of my 5-hour usage limit.

After finishing the task codex dropped from 100% to 91% usage left. I launched vscode to inspect the config file and after coming back to codex it dropped again this time from 91% to 88% without me doing anything on codex. I guess that was just a delay.

Then I closed both apps, changed config toml manually, relaunched codex, created a new chat and ran the same prompt again with 5.4-high. It also used 19k tokens to finish the same task, but my 5-hour usage didn't even drop, it's still at 88%.

After 30min waiting for my usage to update, I gave up, it's stuck at 88%. What is going on? Is this a bug or are they charging more during peak hours?
