Codex Reset is a web service at codex-reset.app that organizes public events about OpenAI Codex usage resets and sends opt-in alerts. It collects public posts, turns qualifying ones into dated event records with a source trail, and emails subscribers who have chosen which event types they want.
The service presents itself as independent. Its terms state: "We are not affiliated with, an authorized agent of, or endorsed by OpenAI." The same terms explain that names such as Codex identify the subject being monitored, with rights remaining with their owners.
Several unrelated sites track the same topic under the same or nearly the same name, including a plural-named product called Codex Resets and other services also called Codex Reset. This page covers only the Codex Reset tracker hosted at codex-reset.app.
The most important boundary is stated in the footer of every page: public signals do not confirm your personal quota. Codex Reset can tell you that a reset was announced or reported, but it cannot tell you whether your own account received it.
Because publication is automatic and calibration comes later, each record shows its own publication method and calibration state, so a reader can tell whether a person has reviewed it.
Every event has a detail page that lists the event type, eligible plans, event time, how the record was published, its calibration state, its origin, and a numbered source trail linking to the original post.
The homepage shows a reset likelihood panel for the next 24 hours and 48 hours. According to the help pages, the 24/48-hour levels are rule estimates rather than confirmations of an event; missing or outdated evidence produces no current rating, and a high rating cannot create a completed-reset record. The panel links to the source coverage page and shows when the assessment was last updated.
Codex reset alerts are split by purpose. Quota-reset and reset-credit notifications are separate choices, and likelihood alerts are managed apart from reset notifications. Advance notices are off by default, and likelihood changes need separate consent, so a new subscriber does not receive forecast emails unless they opt in. Users can also set a plan filter, a language, a time zone and quiet hours.
The help section holds six short guides with sources and verification dates. They cover personal recovery times versus public resets, reset-credit grants, where to check your own usage, what to do after reaching a limit, time zones and timestamps, and how the alerts work. Each guide links to the OpenAI pages it relies on, and all six carried a verification date of 2026-10-02 when captured on October 5, 2026.
When a Codex session stops on a limit, the event list shows whether a public reset has been announced recently. The site's own guide is careful about what that can prove: account usage limits, workspace controls, network failures and service incidents are different problems, and its public event list cannot diagnose your account. The same guide describes the official account as the place where, depending on plan and current conditions, waiting, an available reset, additional credits or an upgrade may be offered.
Some reset announcements are not resets at all but credits. The site explains that some promotions offer banked resets that require a separate action to use, which is why credit grants are tracked as their own event type and can be followed with their own alert setting.
The events page doubles as an archive of past announcements, each with a link back to its source. As captured on October 5, 2026, the earliest record listed described the source reporting that Codex limits were reset for all paid plans so users could continue building with GPT-5.5, labelled as an April 2026 record that is not a current reset notification.
No price, plan table or free-tier limit was displayed on the homepage, subscribe page, help guides or terms reviewed on October 5, 2026, and the site has no pricing page. Signing up needs only an email address: no password is set, and users choose which notifications to receive after verification.
The terms of use, updated 2026-10-02, still anticipate paid access:
| Option | Coverage | Alert channels | Notable details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Codex Reset | Public Codex quota resets and reset-credit grants | Source trail, revision history, rule-based 24/48-hour levels | |
| Official usage dashboard and /status | Your own account | Not applicable | Named in Codex Reset's help as the place for personal limits and reset times |
| Codex Resets | Codex reset announcements | Browser, Telegram, email | Free public MCP server and API; community-built iOS app |
| LimitReset | Codex, Claude, Gemini, Copilot and others | Browser push, email | Personal reset timeline stored in the browser |
Codex Reset itself points to the official option for personal questions: use the official usage dashboard for current limits and reset times, and in a Codex CLI session, use /status to inspect your status. Neither public tracker can replace that view.
Codex Resets watches @thsottiaux for Codex reset announcements. It also offers its data through a free public MCP server and API, which suits developers who want to wire reset data into their own tools. Its site also links an iOS app built by a community member and labelled unofficial.
LimitReset covers more than Codex: its board notes that Codex resets are announced, not scheduled, while Claude runs 5-hour and weekly windows, Gemini resets at midnight PT and Copilot on the 1st. Browser push works with no account. Email alerts use double opt-in, with one email per reset and one-click unsubscribe. A "My resets" timeline keeps personal reset times in the browser.
Compared with both, Codex Reset trades channel variety for record detail: the reviewed pages offer email as its only alert channel, but every event carries its source trail, eligibility, timestamps and revision history.
No. Its terms state that it is not affiliated with, an authorized agent of, or endorsed by OpenAI; Codex is the name of the product it monitors.
No. It tracks public announcements only and cannot read your account. For personal limits and reset times, its help pages point to the official usage dashboard or, in the Codex CLI, to /status.
No. The 24/48-hour levels are rule estimates, not confirmations, and a high level cannot create a completed-reset record. When evidence is missing or outdated, no current level is shown.
No price was shown on the pages reviewed on October 5, 2026, and signing up needs only a verified email address. The terms mention possible trial or paid access, with no automatic renewal in phase one.
Turn off alerts in My alerts or use the unsubscribe page, which asks for confirmation; supported email clients also offer one-click unsubscribe.
