This is still missing from my list, but all my friends seem to have it already. Is there anyway to force a refresh on the model list or something?

I have pressed that button, about 500000000 times now.

Also, there’s a bug with that button, the whole button spins, instead of just the reload icon.

Hey buddy, check if your app is up to date. I was not able to see it until I had installed the latest update.

I agree it is a great model. I am getting some good stuff done with it. What I find good with this model is the complexity it can handle. Before if there was some logic I was trying to implement I’d have to give quite a large explanation if it was abit complex, but it seems to get it with lesser direction needed now.

One thing I have noticed is it doesn’t always check for linter errors on files it has created or made modifications to. It would be good if there is an option to force a lint check on all files that are modified in that agent turn at the end (unless there is already something like this). It’s not really a problem thought as these I can pickup during review and select “Fix in chat”.

in the list of current models in the chat box, there’s a All models link at the bottom. That opens settings which lets you select more models to appear in your chat box list.

Best model I’ve used by far. Not cheap, but 100x smarter, more accurate, and less frustrating than all the lower cost options I’ve tried. Number of times I found myself thinking - that’s a great idea! to its solution, it is a joy to work with.

今天的计费是不是坏了，疯狂的乱计费  
Is there something wrong with today’s billing system? It’s charging fees like crazy for no reason.

This is a significant addition to the general Cursor experience. The value proposition has become much better with Claude 4.5 Opus being able to perform better and have a much lower price. I will certainly use the Sonnet pricing period to find out what it can do.

Does anyone know how many requests are consumed in the Pro Plan with request-based legacy pricing for Opus 4.5? Had great performance during my tests… really very good model.
