Codex usage panel needs an authoritative reset and entitlement event history #35042

Description

@grtninja

Feature request / transparency gap

Codex users currently see the account-specific scheduled reset timestamp in the Usage/Analytics panel, but there is no authoritative in-product history or event feed for other usage-affecting changes such as promotional resets, incident-related restoration, temporary multipliers, plan entitlement changes, or a reset that was announced but has not yet been applied.

As a result, users may learn about possible reset events through social posts, video comments, community threads, or third-party forecasting sites. That creates avoidable confusion about whether an account was eligible, whether a reset actually occurred, and whether the displayed balance is current.

This request does not allege selective or manually targeted resets. It asks Codex to make its own account-level usage events authoritative and inspectable.

Current behavior

The Usage panel can show values such as:

  • weekly usage remaining;
  • a scheduled weekly reset date/time;
  • model-specific remaining usage;
  • purchased credits.

It does not show a ledger of usage-affecting entitlement events, for example:

  • scheduled reset due;
  • special reset announced;
  • eligibility evaluated;
  • reset applied or skipped;
  • allowance multiplier changed;
  • model-specific pool changed;
  • incident-related credit/restoration decision;
  • plan or account entitlement changed;
  • timestamp and source for each event.

Expected behavior

Add an authoritative account-scoped usage event history to Codex Desktop and the web analytics surface. Each event should include:

  1. event type;
  2. announced/effective timestamp and timezone;
  3. affected usage pool or model;
  4. eligibility rule or reason code;
  5. status: pending, applied, skipped, reversed, or expired;
  6. before/after balance when applicable;
  7. source: normal schedule, promotion, incident response, support adjustment, or plan change;
  8. a stable event identifier that support can reference.

The interface should clearly distinguish:

  • the normal recurring reset;
  • a possible or announced special reset;
  • a reset actually applied to this account;
  • purchased credits;
  • model-specific pools;
  • forecast/community speculation, which should never be needed to interpret the account state.

Why this matters

  • Users should not have to monitor individual employees' social accounts or third-party forecast sites for usage-critical information.
  • A visible event history makes support and usage disputes much easier to diagnose.
  • It prevents normal account differences from looking like favoritism or silent entitlement changes.
  • It gives users a reliable answer when an expected reset does not appear.

The requested outcome is an authoritative, account-specific record—not a public forecast.
