Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

After using ctrl + k to open the inline chat interface, I can no longer see the model selection interface??? I have enabled the non-thinking model (such as Sonnet 4.5) in the model settings interface.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Use the shortcut ctrl + k to open the inline chat interface
  2. The interface does not display the model selection dropdown
  3. Using the shortcut ctrl + \ also does not bring up the model options

Expected Behavior

Can correctly select the model I wish to use.

Sonnet 4.5 (no thinking)

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. This isn’t a bug. Model selection in Quick Edit Ctrl+K was intentionally removed in recent versions. Now Ctrl+K automatically picks the best model Auto.

Reason: Quick Edit isn’t compatible with some models like thinking models, Anthropic 4.6+, and others, so we removed the model picker.

If you need control over the model, use Agent chat Ctrl+L, the model picker is available there.
