Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report!

We need a bit more info to figure this out:

  • Which custom model provider are you adding (OpenAI/Azure/Bedrock/OpenRouter, etc)?

  • Try this:

  1. Developer: Reload Window
  2. Full restart of Cursor

This seems like an old issue where models in the picker were cached and wouldn’t reset, so you’d have to edit the DB file.

@deanrie I am using Anthropic API key.
I have tried quitting and starting again.
Did “Developer: Reload Window” and even reinstalled it. Nothing seems to be working

I just checked and I have the same problem. I think these models are loaded from Anthropic’s API key, but they’re not in the model list on the models page. I’ll pass this to the developers, thanks.

@deanrie Thank You

@deanrie can you please look into my other issue as well?

Simple steps, just add custom models.
They are not visible in settings, but they still appear in the chat window.
Additionally, it is no longer possible to delete any custom model in the settings.

Could you clarify exactly what needs to be edited in the DB file?
