Developer rants Codex session bloat kills usage quota, switches to Hermes-Agent for context control

A developer vents that Codex keeps bloated sessions that burn through usage quota, and rejects the official 'skills issue' explanation. Arguing the real problem is context management, the author recommends Hermes-Agent for 100% control over context bloat: maintaining context length, regularly handing off to other agents, and customizing usage-management setups. The post highlights how context management directly drives costs under usage-based pricing for AI coding tools.
