Why does Codex show multiple usage limits?
Understand separate five-hour, weekly, and model-specific Codex meters without combining unrelated percentages or reset times.
Codex can show more than one active quota scope. When Codex labels several quota rows, the safest interpretation is to track each labeled window and timestamp separately.
Separate windows by label
OpenAI says a rolling five-hour usage period can be accompanied by weekly usage limits.
For each displayed row, capture its label, remaining percentage, reset date, reset time, and timezone. Do not average percentages or reuse one reset time for another row.
Keep model-specific meters separate
OpenAI says GPT-5.3-Codex-Spark has a separate usage limit that may be adjusted with demand.
If /status groups rows under a model name, preserve that model label. CodeReset can display the general weekly meter and model-specific five-hour or weekly meters as separate cards.
Boundary conditions
Labels and available models can change across plans, clients, and staged releases. This guide explains how to read the rows; it does not claim that every account receives the same set of meters.
Should I add the remaining percentages together?+
No. The rows can represent different windows or model scopes, so adding them would create a percentage with no useful meaning.
Which reset time should I use?+
Use the reset time attached to the specific quota you need. If several rows matter, create a separate countdown for each one.
