Codex reset alerts, explained.
A short guide to what ResetPulse watches, how it separates signals from proof, and what you can expect when you join the alert list.
What is ResetPulse?
ResetPulse is an independent community monitor for Codex usage reset signals. It keeps a timestamped public history and can send one email when a reset is confirmed.
How quickly does it update?
The monitor checks its signal surface on a server-side schedule of about once per minute. A check can still be delayed when the underlying source is delayed, unavailable, or ambiguous.
What is the difference between an early signal and a confirmed reset?
An early signal is useful evidence that something may have changed. A confirmed reset requires the timestamp, author, content, and reset scope to line up before it is used for an alert.
Can I rely on the displayed banked-reset expiry time?
Treat the displayed expiry as an account-specific observation, not proof that a banked reset will automatically apply. Record the timestamp and timezone, then compare the allowance and banked-reset state before and after the cutoff. If the before/after state is missing, the result is unknown rather than a universal rule.
Do you need my Codex credentials?
No. ResetPulse does not ask for your Codex password, session, or account access. You only need an email address if you choose to receive alerts.
How do email alerts work?
You first receive a confirmation link. After confirming, ResetPulse sends one useful email when a new reset is confirmed. Every alert includes an unsubscribe path.
Is ResetPulse an official OpenAI product?
No. ResetPulse is an independent community project and is not an OpenAI product or service.
