Relatively new to cursor. Great product, but it’s a metered service, correct? Absolute bottom line (past any marketing nonsense): I pay X dollars per month, and I get Y usage.
So then, where’s the USAGE METER?
Scoured the app admin section and discussion points. It appears there is not meter, only a detailed list of each request.
How do I know at any point in the month where I stand in terms of consumption?
imo a little scummy that its not default to always on like it used to be. Been using cursor for over a year now and this is the first I’ve seen that setting as well.
Feature added in 1.7 or 2.0
I had the same initial reaction.
The oddest part is - in the online dashboard, you can get a CSV of each of your conversations itemized with cost, but no overall meter or any graphs showing how close you are to the limit.
That is very, very fancy. Would have expected something like that at Cursor - The AI Code Editor already 
And this is how I learned that I’m out of usage until… December 15?
How does this thing keep working, then? I’m not sure I get this - using the Auto mode btw and Composer 1. But I just switched to Sonnet 4.5, and it keeps working. 
I’m on the Pro plan.
So what’s going on now? Am I being redirected to use a dumb (or free model) with each Auto request?
That doesn’t seem to be the case when I look at the usage dashboard
Those definitely look like you’re still within your quota. It looks like this when you run out and go to usage-based (if enabled):
But the amount you get in your plan is just the minimum API value you get. You get more beyond that (typically 1.5-2x more in my experience) based on whatever API discounts and deals Cursor is making with the providers presumably.
