Cursor IDE/Agent Manager: "Cursor 2" missing from model picker

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

The Cursor 2 model does not appear in the model selection dropdown in Cursor IDE, so I cannot choose it even though I expect it to be available for my account/build. It is my daily driver.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Cursor IDE.
  2. Open the model selection control (e.g. in Chat / Agent / the model picker in the UI—use the exact place you use).
  3. Open the dropdown list of models.
  4. Scroll/search the list for Cursor 2 (or the exact name shown in release notes).
  5. Observe that Cursor 2 is not listed.
  • Same issue for IDE and Agent manager
  • Able to select Cursor 2 in CLI mode, BUT I AM NOT USING AT ALL. I AM NOT FAN OF CLI VERSION.

I AM ONLY RELY ON “COMPOSER 2” MODEL SO YOU CAN ASSUME THAT CURRENTLY CURSOR IS UNUSABLE FOR ME RIGHT NOW.

Expected Behavior

Cursor 2 should appear in the model dropdown alongside the other selectable models (assuming my plan and app version support it)

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hi @JigneshKhokhaniWork, sorry for the trouble, this is a known issue for macos and the current version,

The bypass that exist for now is to go in the settings and manually adding Composer 2 in the menu, it should then appear to be used normally.

@Tom_Coustols Thanks for the quick solution but Composer 2 already in the model list so there are no effect even if I add new custom model.
And even if Composer 2is enabled in Models list, I can not shows the Fast version of Composer. I don’t use Fast at all due to quality issues.

this is a known issue for macos and the current version,

As you are saying it’s know issue, is there any active thread where or similar bug report where I can track the status ?

Oh well haha, just saw the other thread was actually, fixed, do you see this in your cursor instance? if not, try updating manually cursor :slight_smile:

Oh my god,I never noticed this tiny Edit button where you can toggle Fast mode.

It’s awesome—but there should be a way to make this change more noticeable to users.

Ohhh yeah I just show and post the reply.
Thanks for the solution :+1:
You are awesome !!!

Indeed! We are taking all feedback! glad the issue is resolved! Good coding!

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

same issue here . They must have done it on purpose
Man this is so frustrating , composer 2 fast did a disaster today , committed code to the wrong project and pushed it !!

Cursor team need to notify us of such changes not to get surprised in every update
