/usage premium request counter significantly undercounts actual quota consumption #1582
/usage session counter should match (or closely approximate) the number of requests deducted from the monthly quota.
Actual behavior
/usage shows 6 requests; quota indicates ~30+ were consumed. The counter also appears to reset or drop after context compaction (auto-summarization): token counts dropped
from 1.4M input / 3.9K output → 583K input / 1.1K output mid-session, and the counter restarted from a lower number.
Additional context
Compaction events may consume requests that are not carried over in the /usage counter after summarization. It is unclear whether quota consumption includes background
operations not surfaced in the session counter.
Thanks for the report. We've shipped fixes in this area since this was filed, and we believe this may now be resolved. Could you retest on the latest release (Copilot CLI v1.0.103) and let us know whether you still see it? If we don't hear back in a couple of weeks, we may close this issue — you can always reopen it.
Triaged as part of a Copilot SDK backlog review, with help from GitHub Copilot.
