OpenAI resets Codex rate limits
OpenAI’s Tibo Sottiaux says a Codex issue has been fixed and rate limits will be reset across all plans within 24 hours. The move follows recent Codex quota changes, including banked resets and referral-based reset credits.
This is less a flashy feature than a pressure valve for Codex power users, but quota reliability is now core product UX for coding agents.
- –Rate-limit resets matter because Codex users can burn through quotas during long agentic coding runs, large repos, and high-reasoning tasks
- –Resetting all plans signals OpenAI is treating quota disruption as a broad user-impact issue, not just a support edge case
- –The timing reinforces how actively OpenAI is tuning Codex access mechanics after complaints about unpredictable resets and fast-draining limits
- –For developers, the bigger issue remains transparency: resets help, but clear quota accounting matters more for planning serious work
