When does the Codex weekly limit reset?
Find your account-specific weekly recovery time and plan work without assuming a universal Monday reset.
The available official documentation does not establish one universal Monday or midnight reset for every account. Use the current reset time shown in your own usage view.

The usage dashboard is the official place to see current usage and reset times.
Save the displayed date, time, and timezone. If a timezone abbreviation is ambiguous, confirm the offset before creating a reminder.
Plan around both windows
OpenAI says weekly limits may apply in addition to the rolling five-hour usage period.
- Move critical work earlier than the final quota hours.
- Keep a buffer for reviews, fixes, and unexpected context growth.
- Re-check the dashboard after the countdown ends.
Boundary conditions
A local timer does not refresh account data. A public reset announcement also does not prove what happened to one private account; verify the usage view before changing plans.

The cited official page does not publish that universal rule. Use the date and time shown for your account.
