Codex Rate Limits will reset tonight

I just saw this message from the head of the Codex team on Twitter/X.

Since it makes sense to use available tokens before they reset, I am sharing it here to see whether this is useful information for the community.

Tonight likely refers afternoon in SF, I assume.

Codex team is aware of reports of GPT-5.5 performing worse for some users and investigating. We don't have anything conclusive yet and systems are healthy but we will share updates as we go.
