Codex rule change — September 10, 2026

POLICY Rule change 2026-09-10 2026-09-10 @thsottiaux

$ Codex changed its usage limit rules on September 10, 2026.

OpenAI pauses new subscriptions to the $200 Pro plan. The stated reason is that this tier puts the most strain on the system, and pausing new sign-ups protects the experience of existing users and the availability of Astra. All other plans and the API are unaffected.
