Codex Usage and Resets

Privacy

Updated July 28, 2026

Local processing

CUAR runs on the user's machine. When invoked, it starts the user's local Codex App Server and performs one read-only account/rateLimits/read request. Normalization, pace calculations, projections, and time-zone conversion happen locally.

Data CUAR does not collect

CUAR does not operate a hosted usage service, send telemetry to Filament Labs, read Codex authentication files, inspect session logs, or persist reset-credit identifiers, account identifiers, or raw App Server responses.

Local reset ledger

To observe an unexpected reset across invocations, CUAR keeps one sanitized local snapshot containing the observation time, Scheduled Reset time, whole used percentage, and Banked Reset count. It may also retain one derived reset observation containing only its observation window, prior Scheduled Reset, and source classification. Records are replaced rather than accumulated.

On each successful report, CUAR discards records older than eight days. A report that cannot form a trustworthy comparison clears the comparison chain. Writes use one fixed-name same-directory temporary file; an interrupted temporary write is removed before the next ledger transaction.

The default ledger location is ~/Library/Caches/CUAR/reset-ledger.json on macOS, $XDG_CACHE_HOME/cuar/reset-ledger.json or ~/.cache/cuar/reset-ledger.json on Linux, and %LOCALAPPDATA%\CUAR\Cache\reset-ledger.json on Windows. Deleting that file clears the ledger and causes the next successful report to create a new baseline. CUAR never uploads the ledger to Filament Labs.

Codex and OpenAI

When CUAR reports results in a conversation, the normalized facts used by the agent may be processed by OpenAI under the user's account and applicable OpenAI terms. Codex authentication and the App Server response remain subject to OpenAI's services and privacy practices.

Diagnostics

CUAR exposes sanitized error messages. Its doctor report provides compatibility and version information without usage percentages, reset timestamps, reset-credit details, account identifiers, email addresses, authentication paths, or tokens.

Website analytics

These project pages use Cloudflare Web Analytics for aggregate traffic and performance measurement. The website does not use advertising trackers or a contact form.
