Always visible usage meter

I think adding a usage meter in Cursor above the chat window would be helpful, breaking context to come to the web is not helpful. I would like to be able to see which models are costing more than they should inside my workflow.

And make it optional for those who want to hide from it.

And please convert token-nonsense to selectable real currencies (but I am fine with USD-only) to understand, how to use less tokens. With some real time self-tests as an environment.

BTW it should be a ‘base ‘ feature’ as system design for putting the customer in focus: full and total transparency.
An improved version would be able estimate on different prices of different models in auto mode for a task to choose wisely.

Agree, instead of “you are approaching the limit”… just show me the % and if I click show me the pane.

The fact that it displays on hover is an absolute terrible UX decision.
