Problem

In the last minute before a usage limit resets, the limit tooltip in the thread details card can read "Resets in 0m", where every other usage surface says "Resets momentarily".

To reproduce: open a thread whose provider reports usage limits, with Usage limits shown in the thread details card. Hover or focus a limit row (such as 5h) after the clock enters the minute in which that limit resets, when the reset time is not on a whole minute.

Change

LimitRow in ThreadDetailsUsage.tsx built its reset label itself, as Resets in {formatDuration(resetsAt - now)}. formatDuration floors to whole minutes, and the card's clock (useNowMinute) is floored to the minute too. So a limit that resets at 12:00:30 reads "Resets in 0m" from 12:00:00 until the next minute tick, a stretch of up to 60 seconds.

#17869 fixed this rule once in the shared formatResetsIn, which says "Resets momentarily" for the final 60 seconds. The Usage page, the pooled limits card and the mobile usage screens all call it. This card came later (#26859) with its own copy of the rule and skipped that branch.

The tooltip now calls formatResetsIn and capitalizes its "resets in" prefix, since the label starts the tooltip line, the same inline capitalization the pooled limits card uses. Before the change the line reads "Resets in 0m · 4:00 AM". After it, the line reads "Resets momentarily · 4:00 AM". Earlier in the window it still reads "Resets in 5m · 4:05 AM", as before.

The one visible surface is the limit-row tooltip in the web thread details card, which desktop also renders. The popup wraps at max-w-80 and has no truncation, so the longer label is not clipped. Mobile has no thread details usage card. The other web usage surfaces already call formatResetsIn and do not change.

Scope and approval

This is the defect #17869 fixed ("say resets momentarily in the final minute"), still present in a component that re-implements that rule instead of calling the shared helper. It is a very small fix for an obvious bug. The right label is the one #17869 already chose, and the change is one expression in one component, so it qualifies without a prior issue.

Open PRs #27363, #27740 and #29978 also touch ThreadDetailsUsage.tsx; none changes the reset line. #27740 and #29978 edit the import line next to this PR's import change, so whichever lands second needs a one-line rebase, and #29978's new required prop would need adding to this test. All three already conflict with main.

Verification

I added ThreadDetailsUsage.browser.test.tsx; no existing test renders this card. It renders the card with the clock pinned to 12:00:00, focuses the 5h row and reads the tooltip, for a limit that resets at 12:00:30 (fails on main) and one that resets at 12:05:00 (passes on both, and pins the capitalized "Resets in" the fix adds).

On main with only the test commit (4f0a514), from apps/web, vp test run src/components/chat/ThreadDetailsUsage.browser.test.tsx:

× labels a limit resetting at 2026-11-03T12:00:30.000Z
AssertionError: expected '5h: 60% leftResets in 0m · 4:00 AMUnd…' to contain 'Resets momentarily · '
Tests  1 failed | 1 passed (2)

With the fix, same command: Tests 2 passed (2). vp run check:changed passes format, lint, knip, typecheck, tests and the React compiler check.

In a running dev build (web, Windows), I ran one real Codex turn, turned on Settings → Appearance → Thread details → Usage limits, and hovered the Session row. Codex reported that window resetting at 2026-11-07T04:14:39Z. The browser's clock (Playwright page.clock) was paused at 04:14:10, 29 seconds before that real reset. Server data was untouched. The before run serves main's ThreadDetailsUsage.tsx, the after run this branch:

main:   Session: 99% left / Resets in 0m · 8:14 PM / Under pace
branch: Session: 99% left / Resets momentarily · 8:14 PM / Under pace
Before (main) After (this branch)
Before: the Session tooltip reads Resets in 0m · 8:14 PM After: the Session tooltip reads Resets momentarily · 8:14 PM

What I could not check: waiting out a real final minute on the wall clock. The browser clock was moved instead.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 96611eb

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — The usage tooltip now says “Resets momentarily” during a limit’s final minute instead of showing zero minutes. This is a presentation-only change; usage enforcement and reset timing remain unchanged.

Walkthrough

The reset-time tooltip now uses formatResetsIn for future reset times. Browser tests check the displayed text for reset times five minutes and 30 seconds after the fixed clock time.

Changes: Usage reset tooltip

Layer / File(s) Summary
Format reset text and verify labels
apps/web/src/components/chat/ThreadDetailsUsage.tsx, apps/web/src/components/chat/ThreadDetailsUsage.browser.test.tsx
The tooltip uses formatResetsIn instead of formatting the time difference directly. Browser tests check the labels “Resets in 5m · ” and “Resets momentarily · ”.

Wait for the tooltip assertion.

This assertion takes one DOM snapshot and cannot wait if the popup mounts later. Wrap it in await vi.waitFor(...); vi.waitFor advances fake timers between checks. (vitest.dev)

As per coding guidelines, “Browser tests assert through expect.element or vi.waitFor.”

Use a clock that detects the final minute.

At 12:00:30, a reset at 12:01:00 still receives now as 12:00:00. The tooltip shows “Resets in 1m” until the reset, then removes the label. (raw.githubusercontent.com) Use a clock that updates across the final-minute and reset thresholds, and test those transitions.

165:
Update the clock supplying `now` to `formatResetsIn` so it refreshes across both
the final-minute threshold and the reset time; add tests verifying the displayed
label changes at each transition.

Keeping the clock as it is in this PR. The card has used the minute-floored useNowMinute since #26859, and this PR only makes its label use the shared formatResetsIn rule. Ticking per second, or at the reset thresholds, changes how often the card re-renders, which is its own behaviour and performance call and fits better as a separate change.

@spoukyii Understood. This PR changes the formatter, not the clock cadence. I won’t request a clock change in this PR. The existing final-minute timing limitation can remain a separate behavior and performance decision.

Would you like me to open a follow-up issue for the clock behavior and transition tests?

Hovering a limit row in the thread details card shows when the limit resets.
These cases pin that label a minute out and thirty seconds out. The second
reads "Resets in 0m" on main.
… final minute

The limit tooltip in the thread details card built its reset label from
formatDuration, which floors to whole minutes. In the last minute before a
reset the tooltip read "Resets in 0m". pingdotgg#17869 taught the shared
formatResetsIn to say "Resets momentarily" there, and every other usage
surface calls it, but this card was added later with its own copy of the rule.

The tooltip now calls formatResetsIn and capitalizes its "resets in" prefix to
start the line.

Applied the follow-up in 4f0a514: the tooltip assertion now runs through vi.waitFor. It still fails on main with "Resets in 0m" and passes with the fix.
