codex-quota-optimizer
Optimize Codex Plus/Pro usage before and during coding tasks. Use when the user wants to save Codex quota/credits, reduce token or context waste, choose a cheaper model/reasoning level, avoid unnecessary repo scans/tests/subagents, or plan an implementation with the smallest reliable execution footprint. Do not use when the user explicitly prioritizes maximum quality regardless of usage.

# Codex Quota Optimizer
Optimize for **useful work per unit of Codex allowance**, not for the shortest answer.
## 0. Operating principle
Use the cheapest execution path that can still meet the acceptance criteria. Escalate only when evidence shows the cheaper path is insufficient.
Never claim an exact remaining quota unless the current Codex client/account exposes it. If quota state matters, tell the user to check `/status` or the usage dashboard, then continue with the best available strategy.
### Zero-friction invariant
The optimizer must not become the overhead.
