OpenAI Codex lead Thibault Sottiaux launches usage-reset banking to help developers manage daily token limits
Some developers report leaving the accumulated resets completely unused.
Many users praised Codex adding banking for usage resets because it reduces anxiety and offers flexibility, while others called the feature a mistake since the resets expire after only a month.

Now that you can bank usage resets in Codex. Are you a hoarder or do you use them without breaking a sweat? How do you think about them?
@thsottiaux I’m a certified token maxxer, and that’s why I built this:
@thsottiaux I got 2 resets this week, but they both said "expires in 30 days"
@thsottiaux Well I just use them constantly I can use up my entire weekly usage in like 2-3 days on $200 Plan
@thsottiaux Show us when they expire in app please! I’m a hoarder but I don’t want to hoard TOO long 😭
@thsottiaux I had to use one because I hit my 5h window in like 1h (first time that happens ever). That was a bit rough because I had 85% left on the weekly limit, but I didn't have time to wait 4 hours for the 5h reset
@thsottiaux I’m a forced hodler, as I don’t have a mac, and you can only apply them from the desktop app.
@thsottiaux Good question, i'm uses it , and here are the effects, you can admire it, still 😁

@thsottiaux It would be nice if we could keep them indefinitely until they’re used. I have two resets available right now, but they expire in 30 days. At my current usage rate, I’ll probably end up losing one 😕
@thsottiaux I think of them like this. Not using until emergency.
@JesusGodAndKing @thsottiaux You get it and can use it anytime you want within 30 days but you can’t hoard them forever
@thsottiaux they’re going to put you in comms jail
@thsottiaux This Anthropic campaign was really mean, which is why I made this to balance the score: https://youtu.be/zJKsLneMG-A?si=DWC1IpmFq7oGhcUK
@thsottiaux Total hoarder, hard to beat those generous limits!!
@thsottiaux It will be nice to make unused weekly quota carry over to following weeks.
@thsottiaux You think I have time to hoard?
yeah yeah whatever, so when are you guys gonna start selling them? people love usage resets because they reset subsidized usage. absolutely nobody is converting to credits because the business model is shit. your emails all say "one free reset to get you started" how is it free if the inverse isn't a paid reset? isn't it just a reset?
stop fucking with us and just launch the final business model already so we can start locking into the product long term
@thsottiaux I don't see the point in resetting unless I drain my weekly limit or hit the 5 hour during some intense time sensitive work. Hitting the weekly limit is a formitable challenge though, on the 20x tier.
@thsottiaux give me more tibo
@thsottiaux I had a message pop up saying I only get it for 30 days, which seems to conflict with what I am reading on X
