AI-assisted source synthesis · not an independent investigation.
A report dated November 3, 2026, said OpenAI will first test combining ChatGPT Chat and Work’s agent features in a single interface with a small group of users, allowing users to move from asking questions to completing projects within a conversation. Codex will remain separate. The report also said that starting in December, Plus, Pro, and Business users will share a token-based allowance between ChatGPT and Codex; instant chats will not count toward the limit. Users can check their remaining allowance and reset time under Settings > Usage. The cost of using agents is therefore drawing attention.
