No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, I’ve noticed this issue too, but could you confirm that it started after you changed the base URL and used a different API key from a service compatible with OpenAI? And now this issue has started occurring with the original OpenAI key as well.

It started after I entered my OpenAI key. When I tried replacing it with another key, the GUI began glitching.
