OpenAI accelerates Codex API limit resets, user data shows

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

OpenAI has been issuing resets for its Codex API at a significantly increased rate, approximately 2.5 times faster than the previous year. A user tracking these resets has noted 32 such events since September 2025, with an average frequency of one reset every 10.8 days. The pace has accelerated recently, with seven resets occurring in the last 30 days, averaging one every 4.3 days. This trend suggests a more frequent availability of extra Codex limits for users, though the exact pattern of distribution remains somewhat unpredictable. AI

IMPACT Increased availability of Codex API limits may benefit developers by providing more access for experimentation and development.
