Codex quota guide

Codex usage limits

Codex usage is limited by account and plan. Your own quota window can recover without a new global reset, so the product timer and the public reset monitor answer different questions.

Quick answer

How do I check my Codex usage limit?

  1. Open a Codex session for the account you want to inspect.
  2. Run /usage to view the available usage windows and their reset times.
  3. Treat that result as your account-specific source of truth; public posts describe broader policy or capacity changes.

Does Codex have limits?

Yes. The exact allowance is not a universal fixed number: it can vary by plan, model, task size, context, and current product policy. That is why this guide does not publish a quota number that may go stale.

Weekly quota reset vs global reset

A weekly quota reset restores one account at its scheduled time. A global Codex reset is a broader intervention or credit announced for many users. This site confirms only sourced global events in its public ledger.

What should I do when quota is exhausted?

Check /usage first, note the weekly reset time, and then check the live monitor for any verified global reset or policy signal. A forecast is a probability, not a promise that your account will recover early.
