Direct answer
'Tibo reset' is community shorthand for a Codex global reset announced by Tibo Sottiaux (@thsottiaux), a member of the OpenAI Codex team whose X account has become the de facto announcement channel for reset events. AI Quota Radar sources its verified reset history directly from those announcements — 53 confirmed events since September 2025, each linked to its original post.
Who is behind the announcements
Tibo Sottiaux is an engineer on the OpenAI Codex team. When Codex usage limits are reset globally — typically after an outage or a capacity change — he posts a short announcement on his X account, @thsottiaux. The community started calling these events 'Tibo resets' because his posts are usually the first and clearest signal that a global reset happened. It is a personal account rather than an official OpenAI status page, but its track record on reset announcements has been consistent.
Our reset history is sourced from these posts
Every confirmed event in the AI Quota Radar reset history links to the original @thsottiaux announcement on X. As of the latest update that is 53 verified events between September 2025 and September 2026 — roughly one reset every 6.9 days on average. Browse the full timeline on the reset history page at /history, or open any single date — for example /history/codex/2026-09-12 — to see the announcement behind it. The Codex Reset Tracker at /codex/reset answers whether a reset happened today.
How we grade this source
Because @thsottiaux is a personal account, we treat it as a primary-but-unofficial source: events announced there are listed as Confirmed with an official-source label and high confidence, and every entry keeps a direct link so you can verify it yourself. Community reports without a linked announcement are never presented as confirmed. The live radar panel on this page shows the latest verified reset and how fresh the data is.
