WHy?

Whats wrong with asking that Q? Has it been ‘Tavistock’d’ or ‘Rothschild’d’

We’re constantly evaluating models and we’ll add them when they surpass our existing model range on our internal benchmarks!

While DeepSeek might be working well in certain use cases, we haven’t yet proven it to be worthwhile adding right now.

Another point to consider for your internal benchmarks: DeepSeek-V3 is currently much, much cheaper than gpt-4o and Claude.

I’d like to request a more seamless integration of Deepseek with Cursor, particularly when using our API key. Currently, I need to disable the OpenAI API key in Cursor every time I want to switch to another model besides Deepseek-Chat. This workflow is frustrating and inefficient.

I use Deepseek frequently for simple and medium tasks, and while it’s a fantastic tool, having to toggle settings each time is quite tiresome. Could you please consider either adding Deepseek directly to Cursor or providing a more user-friendly way to switch between models without having to modify the API key settings repeatedly?

Thanks for your consideration!

In fact, the task completion rate also exceeded 4o-mini, even 4o

DeepSeek v3, while it may not be perfect in some ways, is inexpensive enough for Cursor to consider it.Image recognition?No, not many people need it.
