Azure OpenAI Reasoning Models Support

Describe the Bug

Currently, the Azure OpenAI reasoning models do not work in Cursor. I’m wondering if there are any near-term plans to add this functionality to handle the reasoning models API from Azure?

Steps to Reproduce

When we define the API key in Azure with all the required parameters like the model name and endpoint API key, the O3 model selection stops working and raises an error.

Expected Behavior

The reasoning model from Azure should also work similarly to the non-reasoning OpenAI models.

Right now cursor is basically unusable with Azure OpenAI…
