Codex (VS Code extension) stops working mid-session with "model at capacity" errors

Yeah, I had a similar thought — that it might be a surge in usage since gpt-image-2 is pretty cool and a lot of people are probably testing it right now.

In my case, there wasn’t much I could do except wait and hope it would “fix itself”

I also tried searching around but couldn’t find a clear or transparent thread confirming that this is an ongoing issue right now, so I decided to create one just in case others are running into the same problem.

Thanks a lot for your input, really appreciate it!
