When I ask the chat about something it doesn’t do anything, yet it uses some of my credit everytime. I uploaded a video as an explanation: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COI6ou5vBWI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COI6ou5vBWI) ---

I’m having the same issue but only with claude 3.5 sonnet. More than half of my requests with that model do absolutely nothing except use my credits. Switching to gpt-4o solves for me. ---

I’m experiencing the same thing with Claude 3.5 sonnet. Was just about to upload a video. I can enter a prompt, but it returns nothing, and the premium count increments by 1 each time. ---

Same, on Pro account, most of my Sonnet request do nothing and display ‘completed’ status text. ---

Sorry about this! Seems like Anthropic is having some downtime so Sonnet requests might fail - GPT 4o should be working as expected! ---

Is it possible to add an IF conditional like: IF request response status is not 200 (OK), then don’t increment request counter, but still add it to the request logs with its failed status. A ‘request info indicator’ might be helpful in the UI too with info like: - Model used - Response status - Response duration (so you can see from your end when things are slower than usual) - Request token count - Total chat token count ([feature request](https://forum.cursor.com/t/display-number-of-tokens-in-current-chat/6972)) It might help to avoid this ‘silently failing’ dynamic. ---

That’s what I was thinking too. Is it really hard to just check if the request went through and then use teh credit? I wasted around 10 credits thinkinging there was a bug with the editor itself not knowing it was using my credit 😂 ---
