Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. This is expected behavior when a custom API key is enabled in Settings.

To restore Auto mode:

  • Open Cursor → Settings → Models → API Keys
  • Disable any custom API key

Auto mode works only with Cursor’s built‑in model providers and doesn’t appear when custom API keys are active.

Let me know if that helped.
