Brooks 5013d10824 [codex] suppress low usage remaining warnings when credits are available (#28593)
## Why

The TUI computed proactive `Heads up, you have less than ...` warnings
before considering workspace credits. As a result, users could see
included-limit warnings even when they could continue using Codex with
workspace credits.

`has_credits` alone is not sufficient to determine whether finite
credits are usable: a spend-control hard limit can cap the reported
balance to zero while `has_credits` still reflects the workspace's raw
balance. Unlimited credits are the opposite case: they are usable even
though no numeric balance is reported.

## What changed

- suppress proactive TUI rate-limit usage warnings and the lower-cost
model nudge when usable workspace credits are available
- treat credits as usable when `has_credits` is true and either
`unlimited` is true or the parsed balance is positive
- continue showing warnings when the usable balance is zero, including
when a spend-control limit has capped otherwise available workspace
credits
- add regression coverage for zero-balance, positive-balance, and
unlimited workspace-credit snapshots

## Validation

- `just test -p codex-tui rate_limit_usage_warnings_`

Codex CLI is a coding agent from OpenAI that runs locally on your computer.

Codex CLI splash


If you want Codex in your code editor (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), install in your IDE.
If you want the desktop app experience, run codex app or visit the Codex App page.
If you are looking for the cloud-based agent from OpenAI, Codex Web, go to chatgpt.com/codex.


Quickstart

Installing and running Codex CLI

Run the following on Mac or Linux to install Codex CLI:

curl -fsSL https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.sh | sh

Run the following on Windows to install Codex CLI:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://chatgpt.com/codex/install.ps1 | iex"

Codex CLI can also be installed via the following package managers:

# Install using npm
npm install -g @openai/codex
# Install using Homebrew
brew install --cask codex

Then simply run codex to get started.

You can also go to the latest GitHub Release and download the appropriate binary for your platform.

Each GitHub Release contains many executables, but in practice, you likely want one of these:

  • macOS
    • Apple Silicon/arm64: codex-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
    • x86_64 (older Mac hardware): codex-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
  • Linux
    • x86_64: codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz
    • arm64: codex-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz

Each archive contains a single entry with the platform baked into the name (e.g., codex-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl), so you likely want to rename it to codex after extracting it.
