Codex rate limits reset for paid plans ("good week" reset)

OpenAI's Tibo Sottiaux posted that Codex rate limits had been reset for all paid plans to "celebrate a good week" and let users build more with GPT-5.5. The actual reset turned out to be narrower than the wording — OpenAI Support later confirmed weekly Codex limits were not reset for all accounts.
