When does Codex reset?
Editorially updated · Independent guide
Check the reset time in your own Codex usage dashboard or CLI /status. A personal usage window, a public global-reset announcement and a banked reset are different things. A community countdown cannot tell you exactly when your account will recover.
Which reset are you waiting for?
| Personal window | Use the reset time attached to the limit in your account. |
|---|---|
| Global event | Read the source post, its date and eligibility; then check your account. |
| Banked reset | Look for an available reward and its redemption terms in your account. |
If the countdown reaches zero
Refresh the official usage display before starting a large job. If it still reports a limit, check which allowance is exhausted and whether you are in the intended account or workspace. Do not repeatedly change your computer clock: it does not control a server-side allowance.
What to do
- Open your official usage dashboard, or enter /status in an active Codex CLI session.
- Record each limit label, remaining allowance, reset date and time zone that your account displays.
- Enter your weekly reset time in the homepage personal-window tool. Recheck it after a public reset or a manual redemption.
Scope & exceptions
- There is no guaranteed weekly public-reset schedule in this tracker. Historical intervals describe past records only.
- A post announcing a future reset is not evidence that your balance has already recovered.
