Cursor + AWS Bedrock: can we use both without constantly switching settings?

Hey Cursor team :waving_hand:

Is there a way to use AWS Bedrock and still keep using the Cursor catalog models at the same time?

Right now, whenever I want to switch back and forth I have to dig into:
Settings → Models → API Keys → AWS Bedrock and toggle it on/off manually.
It’s pretty exhausting and slows down the workflow a lot.

Ideally I’d like both enabled so I can just pick the model directly without toggling Bedrock each time.

Is this possible today? If not, is there a plan for it?

Thanks!

Hey, thanks for the question.

Unfortunately, this isn’t possible right now. When AWS Bedrock is enabled, all requests, including requests to Cursor catalog models, get routed through Bedrock. This is a known issue and the team is already tracking it.

As a workaround, turn off Bedrock before using other models:
Settings → Models → API Keys → AWS Bedrock → toggle off

I’ve added your report to help increase visibility.

Also, if you’re interested, here’s a similar report with more details: Bedrock enabled reroutes Gemini API requests to Bedrock (“Selected model is not supported by bedrock”) — cannot use Gemini + Bedrock simultaneously (possibly when quota exhausted)

Thanks Dean, appreciate the update :raising_hands:
