The reset comes after users reported unusually rapid consumption of their weekly Codex allowances, leaving some developers unable to use the coding agent normally despite having plenty of quota remaining under ordinary […]

Si vous codez avec Codex, l'agent d'OpenAI qui écrit du code à votre place, préparez-vous à devoir à nouveau regarder votre montre, puisque cette fameuse limite fait son retour pour les abonnés ChatGPT Plus à partir du 25 août.

C'est un vrai retour en arrière, parce qu'OpenAI avait justement supprimé cette fenêtre de cinq heures le 12 juillet dernier, en ne gardant qu'un plafond hebdomadaire pour les formules Plus, Pro et Business.

Concrètement, la limite des cinq heures fonctionne comme un compteur qui se recharge tout au long de la journée, en plus du quota hebdomadaire qui, lui, encadre votre consommation sur la semaine entière.

Le responsable technique de Codex et ChatGPT chez OpenAI, Thibault Sottiaux, justifie ce choix en expliquant que cette fenêtre permet de lisser la charge sur les serveurs, et donc de préserver un quota hebdomadaire qui reste généreux.

Surtout, sans elle, beaucoup de nouveaux abonnés Plus grillaient sans le vouloir toute leur allocation de la semaine en quelques heures, ce qui débouchait forcément sur une expérience frustrante.

Bonne nouvelle pour les gros comptes, les abonnés Pro à 100 et 200 dollars par mois échappent encore à ce retour de la limite pendant quelques mois, alors que les formules Enterprise et Edu tournent sur un système de crédits à part.

Et si vous tapez dans le mur de l'une des deux limites, il ne vous reste que deux options, patienter jusqu'à la prochaine remise à zéro ou sortir la carte bleue pour acheter des crédits supplémentaires.

Retirer la fenêtre des cinq heures ne rendait de toute façon jamais GPT-5.6 Sol illimité, puisque le plafond hebdomadaire prenait simplement le relais comme nouvelle borne. Rien de gratuit, donc.

Ce yo-yo permanent sur les limites finit par agacer, même si OpenAI galère visiblement à encaisser la demande. Les développeurs, eux, aimeraient surtout de la stabilité. Après chez Claude c'est pareil mais c'est 4h, même pour les abonnés Max, encore plus frustrant donc.
