Is this about my own 5-hour or weekly limit?
No. These are the provider-wide resets that refill everyone's limits early. Your own 5-hour and weekly windows reset on their own timers, which you can see in your account's usage settings.

Data and method

A reset counts only when an original post reports it as completed; announcements, banked resets and reminders are logged but not counted here. Several posts on the same day count once. Every entry, with its source, is on Codex resets and Claude resets. The same data is free as JSON (CC BY 4.0) and as a reset RSS feed. Other trackers show higher totals because they count posts, announcements or banked resets: reset trackers compared.
