WAIT. Did Tibo just casually tease Codex quota resets? 👀

Because if “occasional reset” means what Codex users think it means...

this could be huge.

@CtrlAltDwayne When I say excellent service for existing users, that includes the occasional reset

Codex users are going to lose their minds over the word “reset.”

DeepSeek shipped a model and its own harness in the same week.

Same weights.
Four neutral harnesses: 92.75.
DeepSeek's own: 97.5.

Their smaller model didn't move at all.

So remind me — which one did you benchmark?
The model, or the harness?

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

GPT-Live-1 sounds impressive.

But a factory is a brutal voice test: noise, accents, masks, alarms—and commands that cannot be misunderstood.

The benchmark I care about isn’t “natural conversation.”

It’s whether a voice agent knows when not to act.

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

GPT-Live-1 is now available in the API.

Bring ChatGPT’s natural back-and-forth to your app, with voice agents that listen while they speak and work with the models and harness you choose.

Over 40,000 people saw my post about a Codex outage.

But outages aren’t why I use Codex. Building is.

I’m a visual application engineer. I built Zaotu with AI/vibe coding to turn real engineering experience into job-ready evidence.

@gxlmo Exactly. Restoring quota is welcome, but it doesn’t replace an explanation of what failed.

If AI coding tools are becoming part of real work, predictable limits and transparent incident reports are part of the product—not optional extras.

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

OpenAI wiped everyone's Codex usage to 0% yesterday. Then gave nobody a reset.

“Kerfuffle” is doing a lot of work here.

Your explanation only covers people who used a banked reset. I didn’t. My weekly Codex quota still dropped from nearly half to zero, then returned without an email or explanation.

What exactly failed—and who was actually affected?

[Tibo @thsottiaux]

There was a bit of a kerfuffle this morning with some banked resets not fully applying when used in ChatGPT Work and Codex. Everyone who used one in the affected time window is getting another one and an email to apologize.

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

@aphumphreys Temporary loss of access during active work is the loss. Reliability isn’t measured only by whether the counter eventually comes back.

My case also falls outside the group Tibo described: I used no banked reset, yet my quota went to zero.

What caused that?

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

@glint0b You’re right: “everyone” was too broad. OpenAI’s own status page says “some Codex users.” I’ve corrected that in the thread.

My account was affected without using a banked reset, which still isn’t explained by Tibo’s post.

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

To be precise: OpenAI’s status page says some Codex users had unexpected usage-limit resets.

I didn’t use a banked reset. My weekly quota still dropped from nearly half to zero, then later returned.

The unanswered question: what failed, and how will a repeat be prevented?

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

@thsottiaux I was affected, but I never used a banked reset. My weekly Codex quota dropped from nearly half to zero, then later returned.

So this explanation does not cover what happened to my account.

What caused it, which users were affected, and will OpenAI publish an incident report?

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

这两天突然认识了很多新朋友，挺开心的哈哈。

我平时做机器视觉和自动化，也在用 Codex / vibe coding 把一些想法做成真实项目。

如果你也在认真做东西，欢迎来聊聊。你最近在用 AI 做什么？项目不管大小，发出来让我看看 👀

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

Yesterday my Codex quota suddenly hit zero mid-task. It came back, but the lesson stayed:

An AI coding workflow needs checkpoints.

Keep:
• a context file
• small Git commits
• the current diff
• the next exact step
Models can stop. Your project context shouldn’t.

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

更新：我的额度现在已经恢复了。

但我们依然希望 @OpenAI 能给出一个明确解释。很多人正在依赖 Codex 完成严肃、持续的工作，额度毫���预警地突然归零，很可能直接中断正在进行的重要任务。

这到底是系统故障，还是规则发生了变化？以后又该如何避免？

恢复额度解决的只是这一次问题，真正需要解决的，是平台的透明度与可靠性。@tibo

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

刚刚发生了一件非常离谱的事：

我的 ChatGPT/Codex 账号额度突然全部变成了 0。就在刚才，我的周额度明明还剩近 50，而且我没有���动使用重置，也没有购买额外额度。

限额���以接受，规则调整也可以讨论，但用户剩余额度在没有任何通知的情况下直接消失，至少应该给出解释。

这是系统故障、数据同步异常，还是新的限制规则？

@OpenAI @tibo 请正面回应：如果是系统问题，请恢复被清零的额度；如果是规则变化，请把规则说清楚。

有没有人刚刚也遇到了同样的情况？

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

Update: My quota has now been restored.

But @OpenAI, users still deserve an explanation. Many of us rely on Codex for serious, focused work, and a sudden unexplained drop to zero can derail an active task without warning.

Was this a bug, and what will prevent it from happening again?

Restoring the quota solves today’s problem. Transparency and reliability solve the real one.@thsottiaux

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

OpenAI, what happened to my quota?

My ChatGPT/Codex allowance suddenly dropped to zero just now. I had nearly 50 units left in my weekly allowance, and I never triggered a reset or purchased extra credits.

Limits are one thing. Silently wiping a user’s remaining quota without any explanation is another.

Is this a bug, a sync issue, or a new policy change? Please explain—and restore the missing quota if this was an error.

Anyone else seeing the same thing?

[Echoyd @Echoydug]

@thsottiaux We need answers—and we need them now.
