Claude Code Max 5x or 20xHow each tool’s window resets
- Claude Code has a 5-hour session that opens with your first message and a weekly limit that resets at a fixed time per account. Both are shared with claude.ai and the desktop app. See the Claude Code guide.
- Codex on Plus and Business has a rolling 5-hour window and a weekly one. Pro plans have the weekly window only. See the Codex guide.
- Cursor plans from October 2026 refill one pool every week. Legacy plans reset two monthly pools on the billing day. See the Cursor guide.
You need room in both windows
Where a plan has a session and a weekly window, they stack. A fresh session doesn’t help once the week is spent, and a quiet week doesn’t lift the 5-hour cap. The reset that matters is the one for the window you’re closest to emptying.
Questions
When does the Claude Code 5-hour limit reset?
Five hours after the first message that opened the session. The window doesn’t start on the hour or at midnight: it starts when you send a message with no session running, and every message until the reset draws from it.
When does the Claude weekly limit reset?
At a fixed day and time assigned to your account, the same every week. Run /usage in Claude Code or open Settings › Usage on claude.ai to see it, then enter it here once.
Does Codex have a 5-hour limit on Pro?
No. As of October 2026, ChatGPT Pro plans meter Codex on a weekly allowance only. Plus and standard Business seats have a rolling 5-hour window and a weekly one.
When does Cursor usage reset?
Plans from October 12, 2026 refill one pool every week. Legacy plans (Pro, Pro+, Ultra and Hobby from before the change) keep two monthly pools that reset with the billing cycle.
