After ChatGPT and codex are merged, will using it in Chat GPT consume the subscription credit?

Judging from the latest OpenAI documents, Agent capabilities such as Codex, Workspace Agents, ChatGPT Work, etc.

already share a set of Agentic Usage (Agent usage quota).

In other words, the "Codex independent quota" that everyone previously understood is gradually evolving into the "Agent quota".

Currently, after OpenAI merges ChatGPT and Codex, there are actually two types of quotas: Normal ChatGPT conversation quota Daily chat GPT-5.5 conversation Writing articles, asking questions, translation, general code Q&A Custom GPT, etc.

These still use ChatGPT's message/model quota and will not consume Codex's Agent quota.
