Codex Removes 5-Hour Usage Limit
赛博禅心 · wechat · 2026-07-13
OpenAI has rolled out a new round of updates for Codex and ChatGPT Work, headlined by:
- Temporarily lifting the 5-hour usage cap for Plus, Business, and Pro plans.
- Rolling out changes to make GPT-5.6 Sol consume fewer credits for the same tasks, effectively increasing overall available time. Exact savings figures will be announced later.
- Announcing that active users have surpassed 6 million, with usage limits resetting every hour.
The post wraps up with a rallying cry for users to keep building, reading very much like a policy and efficiency update aimed at power users.
