AYi shares a tip for starting the Codex quota window early
On October 29, 2026, AYi AI Notes published an article sharing a technique the community had figured out for starting the Codex 5-hour quota window early. The article states that the 5-hour quota countdown begins with the first message of the day, so at 7:00 AM one can use Grok Bot to automatically run codex exec ping to trigger the countdown; after the quota resets at 12:00 noon, it then covers the afternoon work period. The article provides a ready-to-copy scheduled prompt and notes that this mechanism comes from community testing rather than official OpenAI documentation, and that a read-only parameter must be included when executing it. Currently this is the only source reporting it, with no subsequent developments yet.
