What variant of Codex are you using?
26.826.11250
What feature would you like to see?
Hello, I would like to request the cancellation of the 5-hour limit for the Plus package, as sometimes only 1-2 days of high-intensity experiments are required within a week, and having a 5-hour limit can affect work progress, or you can freely choose whether to have a 5-hour limit. Looking forward to improvement.

Hello, I would like the 5-hour limit for the Plus plan to be removed, because sometimes I only need to conduct intensive experiments on 1–2 days per week, and the 5-hour limit affects my work progress. Alternatively, users could be allowed to choose whether they want the 5-hour limit. I look forward to improvements.

These restrictions are really annoying.
Totally agree.
Even if you ignore personal scheduling, the five-hour cap really hurts the usability of GPT-5.6 Sol Ultra Model. I started one work session with 100% of my five-hour quota available, and that single session burned through the entire thing. What made it worse was that it stopped with no safe checkpoint or recovery step at all—one of my design docs had been completely deleted but not written back yet, so my only realistic option was to undo everything. That combination of poor task handling and the hard five-hour limit basically wasted half my day.
