    > Cached input costs just $0.10 per million tokens—95% less than standard input pricing and 50% less than GPT‑6 Sol’s cached input pricing

    This is the actual big announcement. 50% cheaper cache than GPT-6 Sol will get you far more mileage on Codex.

      Cache doesn't help you much when you are compacting every 5 minutes...

      I was shocked at how quickly I ran out my $100/mo subscription with a single agent (sol medium).

        Your tool calls (MCPs?) are very likely too wasteful. Apply some filtering logic on the offending tool’s output. Either a wrapper CLI, or just tell codex how to filter.
