fix(codex): classify a sub-day quota header window as the 5h burst (Plus/Team) - #2646
Conversation
…lus/Team)
Codex removed the 5-hour rate limit some time ago and has now restored it for
Plus and Team, while Pro stays weekly-only. OpenCodex reads the same account
state from two wires and only one of them classifies windows by duration.
parseUsageQuota has always used the duration: anything under 24h is a burst
window. parseUpstreamQuotaHeaders knew only "explicitly monthly, or else
weekly", so once the 5h window returned it filed the burst reading as the
weekly one. Identical upstream data, before this change:
headers {primary 97% / 300 min, secondary 12% / 10080 min}
parseUpstreamQuotaHeaders -> {weeklyPercent: 97}
parseUsageQuota -> {shortPercent: 97, weeklyPercent: 12}
Three consequences, worst last: the real weekly reading is discarded; the GUI
shows a weekly bar at 100% and no 5h bar, so the operator cannot tell which
limit they hit; and a 5h-exhausted account keeps weeklyPercent=100 after the
burst window resets, so pool routing avoids a healthy account until an
unrelated WHAM refresh overwrites it.
The header parser now derives its threshold from the same constant the WHAM
parser uses, rather than repeating the number. A declared sub-day primary
becomes shortPercent/shortResetAt/shortWindowSeconds and vacates the primary
slot so the secondary can be what it always was: the weekly reading. A primary
with no declared duration is untouched, because legacy payloads omit the header
and guessing there would reclassify every account that predates the field.
src/routing/quota.ts changes with it, and must. codexAccountQuotaEvidence
scored headroom from weekly and monthly only. That was survivable while the
broken parser wrote 5h values into weeklyPercent - routing saw the burst by
accident. Fixing the parser alone moves a 5h-exhausted account from 0.03 to
0.88 headroom and routes it straight into a 429. The bug was cancelling itself
out; removing one half without the other is worse than leaving both.
Tests: five header-classification cases including the 1439/1440-minute
boundary and the legacy no-duration path; a new parity suite asserting the two
parsers assign identical upstream data to the same windows; three routing
regressions covering burst-exhausted, fully-exhausted, and weekly-bound
accounts. Falsified both ways - reverting the parser branch fails 7, reverting
the routing fold fails 1.

Normalize reset timestamps before filtering them.
parseUpstreamQuotaHeaders stores reset values such as 1787401330, which are Unix seconds. Line 63 compares the raw value with Date.now() in milliseconds. The filter removes normal future short-window resets. resetAtMs is then absent for burst-exhausted accounts.
Normalize the stored reset value to milliseconds before the Line 63 comparison and before assigning resetAtMs. Add a routing test with a future 10-digit shortResetAt.

When quota comes from the restored-window response headers, parseUpstreamQuotaHeaders stores x-codex-primary-reset-at unchanged as Unix seconds (for example, 1787401330), but this new shortResetAt entry is compared with millisecond-valued Date.now() and exposed as resetAtMs. Consequently every real header-derived burst reset is filtered out, so routing evidence for a burst-exhausted account omits its recovery time. Normalize epoch-second reset values to milliseconds before filtering and reporting them.

Identical upstream data, before this change:The comment above the call site records the premise that expired: "primary was the 5h window; it now carries weekly data for GPT plans" (core.ts:3777). True while the window was gone.
