Your Codex limits, in view.
Dockspace shows Codex's 5-hour and weekly limits in a bar of widgets beside the macOS Dock, with the time each one resets. There is no login and no API key: Dockspace reads the logs that Codex already writes on your Mac.

What the widget shows
Codex Limits shows the 5-hour limit and the weekly limit, as OpenAI reports them in the Codex logs. Each one is a share used and a reset time.
The 5-hour limit tells you if the next hour of work fits. The weekly limit tells you if Friday’s big run still fits. The bar is on screen all day, so you do not stop to look it up.
Rest the pointer on the tile, or click it, to open the agent detail dashboard: the 5-hour and weekly bars with a pace mark, API value spending and cache share for Today, 7 Days, 30 Days or 13 Weeks, and a 13-week activity grid with your active days and busiest day.
Where the numbers come from
Codex writes its rate-limit data to log files on your Mac. Dockspace reads those files and nothing else of Codex. It does not ask for your OpenAI login, and it does not call an API with your key.
Right after you start Dockspace, the widget says it is reading logs. The numbers appear when Codex has written them, so run Codex once if the widget has nothing yet.
Nothing about your sessions leaves your Mac. The privacy page lists the few requests the app makes.
Codex, next to Claude and Antigravity
AI Limits puts Codex, Claude and Antigravity in one tile: a ring for each app, the share used and the time until its limit resets. Use it if you switch between tools in one day.
For Claude, see your Claude Code limits and how rolling 5-hour and weekly windows work. For Google’s agent app, see the Antigravity quota.
Every Codex session, not only the limits
The AI Agents widget lists your live Codex sessions with Claude Code, Cursor and Antigravity: which one works, which one is done and which one went quiet, for every project.
When an agent finishes, Buddy peeks out of the bar and says which one. For agents, Dockspace reads only metadata: status, tool name, project folder, timestamps and token counts.
Codex CLI /status vs ~/.codex 13-week hover dashboard
Typing /status inside an active Codex CLI prompt — or opening Codex settings in ChatGPT — shows your current snapshot only when you pause your work to check it.
Because Codex writes rate_limits events and token counts into local JSONL files under ~/.codex/sessions, Dockspace keeps your live 5-hour and weekly percentages beside your Dock all day. Hovering the tile opens a 13-week dashboard with elapsed-time pace marks, API-equivalent USD spend and cache share for Today, 7 Days, 30 Days and 13 Weeks, and a 91-day activity grid — like a live GUI ccusage alternative for both Codex and Claude.
Unlike top-bar utilities whose icons vanish behind the MacBook notch, Dockspace sits in the Dock’s row at the bottom, left or right edge. See how it replaces the Dock, or the other 174 widgets.

Common questions
- Where does Dockspace read Codex usage limits from?
- Codex CLI writes rate_limits objects (5-hour primary window and 7-day weekly window) to local session logs in ~/.codex/sessions on your Mac. Dockspace reads those local files without needing your OpenAI login or API key.
- Why does the Codex Limits tile say it is reading logs right after launch?
- The percentages appear as soon as Codex has written at least one turn's rate-limit event in the last week. Run one prompt in Codex and the widget updates automatically.
- How does Dockspace differ from typing /status inside Codex CLI?
- Typing /status only prints your current snapshot inside an active terminal prompt when you stop to check. Dockspace keeps your 5-hour and weekly percentages beside the macOS Dock all day, and hovering opens a 13-week dashboard with pace marks, API-equivalent USD spend and daily activity.
