OpenAI has issued frequent Codex usage resets for paid subscribers in recent weeks, with the latest confirmed on September 26 following an outage and ongoing token consumption fixes. These ad-hoc resets, often announced via OpenAI executive Tibo Sottiaux on X, address spikes in background agent activity, auto-review overhead, and high demand amid GPT-6 model rollouts like Sol and Luna. Trader sentiment reflects the pattern of resets every 3–7 days on average, tied to product updates, quality patches, and events such as the upcoming OpenAI DevDay on September 29, which many expect could prompt another adjustment before the weekly cycle fully resets for most users.
