What variant of Codex are you using?
CLI
What feature would you like to see?
Please add a way for Linux users to view and redeem banked Codex rate-limit resets, either from Codex CLI or from a Codex web usage/settings page.
Additional information
Banked resets currently appear to be exposed through the Codex app UI, but the Codex desktop app is not available on Linux. Since Linux users generally rely on Codex CLI, there should be a non-desktop-app way to use this feature.
A web implementation would be fine. For example, the reset could be shown and redeemed from a Codex usage/settings page such as:
https://chatgpt.com/codex/cloud/settings/analytics
A CLI implementation would also work, for example through /limits, /usage, or a new command.
At least as of Codex CLI 0.139.0, there's no option to view or redeem banked resets.

A concrete remote-access failure mode: a user can have a banked reset nearing expiration while away from the computer running the Codex desktop app. Today there appears to be no authenticated web or CLI redemption path. Codex Computer Use also intentionally cannot control the Codex app itself, so an active Codex session cannot help redeem it. Installing a third-party desktop driver is not an immediate workaround because macOS Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions require local approval.
Please expose banked-reset inventory, expiration, and redemption through Codex Web and/or the CLI (for example
/usage), and consider automatically applying an unused reset immediately before expiry. This would cover Linux users as well as Mac/Windows users who are temporarily away from their desktop.
