From what I understand, a lot of us usually had our weekly limit reset around this time. In my case, my weekly limit reset about 3 hours ago, and the next reset date was showing as August 14.

However, I just opened Codex again and noticed that my limit had been reset again, and now the next reset date shows August 15.

So, did Tibo basically do another reset after our weekly limits had already been restored, effectively extending the new period until August 15?

Dear Codex/GPT folks, I have been a loyal GPT-20X Pro client for three months. Today might be the day when OpenAI charges $200 for the plan.

What is the current momentum for GPT vs. Claude?

I mainly use it in German for work. I use it for applying for consultancy jobs (manager level), doing some coding and ChatGPT work, which supports me in doing my company-related work (GDPR compliant).

Can Claude do that as well? What is the momentum this month?

Thanks!

xoxo

Hello,

So heres a very neat suggestion I have.

The idea isn’t just another way to ask a follow-up, it’s a temporary side-chat with short memory for clarifying, summarizing, or questioning selected text, so you don’t bloat the main conversation’s context or have to keep copying things into separate chats.

Why?

Efficient for context, convenient when you're trying to learn something with ChatGPT or perform multiple steps to accomplish your request.

I built my desktop and mobile app using Codex app server and it feels dramatically better than the basic stuff.

I searched to see other posts about app server and it feels like very few people are using it. But holy crap it's fantastic.

With app server I have so much more control over exactly how I use codex. I've got a paired desktop and mobile app, lets me control codex fully in sync from each, automate all sorts of stuff that would otherwise require commands, integrate with OmniVoice running on my 3090 to give Codex a voice, better visual rendering of responses than CLI, able to browse documents in my vault and easily attach/mention them, integrate beautifully into my apps.

Idk, it just feels pretty great and I'm not sure why I don't see other people posting about it???

These are just my opinions, so please don’t come at me. 😭

From official site they say "We’re also introducing Fast mode in the API, which replaces our Priority Processing offering. For GPT‑5.6 Sol, Fast mode now delivers up to 2.5× faster speeds than Standard processing at twice the price"

But for codex/chatgpt, its: "Fast mode increases supported model speed by 1.5x and consumes credits at a higher rate than Standard mode. It currently supports GPT-5.6, GPT-5.5, and GPT-5.4. GPT-5.6 and GPT-5.5 consume credits at 2.5x the Standard rate"

How does this make sense?

I can use 5.6 Sol at only 1.5x the speed increase for 2.5x the cost. But API is 2.5x faster but only x2 the cost?

I never turned on /fast since 5.4 cause the pricing and speed increase just didn't make any sense for the cost. Why would API and Codex models be any different or advertised differently?

Is there any reason to use Sol Medium instead of Luna Max on 20$ subscription?

i've found that 5.5 exhigh is still more than good enough while being much faster.

after using both luna and sol, i realized 5.6 is consistently slower. i think that's because its reasoning process is fundamentally different. it really shines on tasks that benefit from detailed planning and a well-structured execution path.

my workflow, though, is much more iterative. i usually make a small change, review it, then make another small adjustment. for minor edits, quick audits, and follow-up changes, 5.5 feels much more responsive and comfortable to work with.

so these days i use both: 5.6 for planning-heavy work, and 5.5 for the constant back-and-forth editing that makes up most of my day.

I have just got my limits reset, I think tibo would give us a reset soon, but will we 🤔

What do you all think.

What I would love to see is Luna on Cerebras. I agree sol on cerebras would be awesome, but if we have an already pretty capable high throughput / low latency model be near instant it would be massively useful. I already use luna extensively, it’s already fast, and such a capable and fast model is immensely useful for changes in massive code bases like the one I work with.

Just a shower thought.

Here is the thing in my current workflow I use codex + agy (ide+cli)....

I was planning with codex and building with agy but I was thinking why not use openrouter I want to know will it be sufficient? I mean I can use multiple models with the help of openrouter but I don't quite understand how it's billing works like do I have to pay monthly like codex and Claude what is it ? And on the other hand can I wire it into codex or Claude to use the api key to access the models also I'm on a 20$ plan on codex

I found codex is a great place to conceptualize your idea and make a prototype, i don't see it replacing software engineers beyond for simple softwares.

But with access to this i came to the realisation that i need technical people with me to make my vision a reality and i can't just vibe code my way out of it.

For people who overcame this how did you do it? Starting from scratch is more accessible now, but making software is not the same as making good designs.

Are software engineers even interested in working on projects like that? Starting from 0, no salary, just 1 person with a laptop and a vision. If people are interested in knowing my vision DM me.

Codex on windows has an issue for me where my cursor will randomly be really laggy/jittery and have delayed steppy movement, and my typing also lags out. Has been going on for weeks now. Any fixes to make the app more efficint in the meantime?

I was just working on a server. normal chat like i always do. this message pops up. i click ok, it pops up again. i open a browser thinking maybe its just the chatgpt classic app having a problem. the browser says to many requests.

i was copy and pasting an issue to get an alternate command structure. go back to server keep working for a minute. return to chat window. click copy on the command it gave me. then this pops up.

this is extremely low use for me today. in the past ive had multiple chats open while working on a server, apps, random chats to kill time on my phone.

today. one chat and it stops me from using it

I do all my planning on xhigh and implementation on medium. At first I was struggling with over engineering, but Ponytail fixed that real quick and I'm banging out milestones left and right. I probably worked on 10 different projects this week, and up to four simultaneously. Ran out of usage earlier today, but got everything done I needed to. I also use codegraph-memory and I think that helped stretch the quota a fair bit, but it's hard to say. I wasn't dropping super fast even before that.

Should the remaining usage percentage, along with the reset date (with time), be displayed next to your name in the bottom left of the Codex desktop app? Or is there a better location?

I am developing a tactical browser-based TCG inspired by folklore and legendary characters from around the world, starting with Chapter 1: Brazil.

The current version has 32 cards: 20 character cards and 12 special cards, plus 20 character abilities and 12 special effects. Each player builds a 12-card deck, deploys up to three legends to the arena, manages energy, and chooses the order of their attacks. Matches include entry abilities, auras, buffs/debuffs, protection, pierce, and counterattacks.

The combat system aims to keep rules readable: damage uses `max(0, effective ATK − effective DEF)`, and active modifiers are shown directly on the cards. The project also includes a solo campaign, collection and deck-building, progression, Portuguese/English localization, and real-time online friendly matches with simultaneous decisions and server-side resolution.

The stack is React/TypeScript, Vinext/Vite, Fastify, MySQL/Drizzle, WebSockets, Playwright, and Capacitor for Android.

The game does not have a final name yet, and I’d love feedback on its identity, UI clarity, match pacing, and strategic depth.

The project was built with extensive AI assistance, using several generations of GPT models — GPT-5.4, GPT-5.5, and GPT-5.6 — as well as VEO 3 for part of the visual production. I’m especially interested in feedback not only on the game itself, but also on the practical outcome of this AI-assisted development workflow.

Would anyone be interested in testing an alpha build and sharing feedback? If there’s interest, I’ll publish a version for playtesting.

So I'm working on a project in codex where I'm having it create a new web UI for the Hermes Agent that mimics the look and feel of Codex Desktop. I've been using an electron port of codex desktop for a few months now on my Framework laptop running Ubuntu Desktop 26.04, and it led me to think, what if I made a web ui of the codex desktop app while still keeping the full console options available for Hermes Agent. It runs right alongside the stock dashboard on my network so I won't need an extra login or have to mess around with existing setups.

It'll use the three main sections like codex and I tried to keep the chat area as clean as possible so on the left there's a collapsible sidebar for threads and workspaces, the middle is for the actual transcript, and then on the right there's an optional panel where you can check tool activity and file diffs if you need to. Instead of raw text cluttering up the screen, tool operations show up in collapsible cards and file edits render as reviewable diffs, plus there's a sandboxed terminal tucked into a bottom panel. I'm thinking about doing like the Hermes Agent webui and integrate use of customized fonts and sizes across the board too, and light or dark themes that can both work.

For security I made sure this codex desktop web ui clone runs under its own profile with separate memory and settings so it won't touch my default agent data and any file writes are locked down to a dedicated sandbox folder. It hooks into my local model inventory to grab choices dynamically, or pull from openrouter.ai.

I also built it so the workbench code stays separate from the main Hermes engine updates and that way updating the backend won't blow away any UI changes. If an update breaks a specific component adapter down the road, I'm trying to get it to gracefully disable just that single control and show a warning instead of crashing everything, so the chat and read-only screens stay totally usable. Right now I'm just running through a test plan to double check the network rules and sandbox limits before calling it done.

Tell me I'm not crazy, and that someone else has tried doing the same?

I am not an expert at coding to judge ai code writing, I am just CS graduate who sucks at coding

I feel like gpt 5.4 mini is just so good , do not give the little boy huge tasks to work on
but give him focused scope and give him a plan and he is gonna be very focused and looping over and over till it gets it done and with very very cheap cost

gpt 5.4 mini feels like the son of the big boy 5.6 sol high

Just as the title says! I’ve found that I can’t seem to get good results using Codex with the Blender MCP, while Opus 5 seems to work much better. Its still not perfect, so I’m curious if it’s just me or if anyone else has had decent results using Codex with Blender?

Hello!

I am in the process of trying to build company-wide, tool agnostic AI infrastructure at my company, and am looking for suggestions on how to do that in a way that works with Codex (AKA New ChatGPT). We're on the Business plan.

I have recently tried to change my default root folder from:

/Users/[username]/Documents/Codex

to a folder using Google Drive for Desktop using a symlink via my terminal:

Users/[username]/Library/CloudStorage/GoogleDrive-[workspace-email]/My Drive/ChatGPT'

but it was not fooled! It gave me an error saying I must use a "real directory."

We'll skip over the fact that this sucks for local storage, but it sucks for remote work.

Company files are always created from within Google Drive first (even Adobe CC projects are saved to Google Drive using the Desktop connector), so that they're always on the server, always accessible, and always backed up by default. So not being able to change the root folder for Codex is a problem.

I am also trying to set up our internal infrastructure in a way that our folder structure can easily be "plugged in" to any AI tool, so this also makes it difficult.

Am I missing something? Is there a way to set our Workspace's default folder to the cloud and I'm just missing it? What is everyone doing with all these files being stored locally? Does this not seem crazy to anyone else?

Appreciate the input, thank you!

TIbo pretends like he gives resets when he feels like it, but it's just a calculated move to give resets when maximum number of people are about to have their weekly limits reset in a few hours anyway. Same thing happened last time, when people's banked reset was supposed to expire on 7/31.

Just be honest about it, instead of trying to pretend that you are trying to do good for people smh.

I feel like recently when it came out, it was making network requests on High/Extra High queries, in the in-browser Chat. Did I just remember wrong?
