What issue are you seeing?

The Codex TUI still shows this tip:

"Tip: New 2x rate limits until April 2nd."

But the current system date is already Apr 3, 2026, so the message appears expired/stale.

This looks like either:

  • the promo banner is not gated by date correctly, or
  • the cached message is not refreshed/removed after the expiration date.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

  1. Open Codex TUI.
  2. Check the startup screen / home screen.
  3. Observe the tip message:

"Tip: New 2x rate limits until April 2nd."

  1. Current system date in my terminal is:

Fri Apr 3 16:15:34 +07 2026

What is the expected behavior?

The expired promotional tip should not be shown after April 2nd.

Expected behavior:

  • either hide the message completely after the expiration date,
  • or replace it with a current/valid message.
