Default to 3.7?

Forum question: How can I make Currsor default to 3.7 or 3.7 Max only? I don’t want it to switch to the default model.

Pick which model you want in the agent view, and it’ll use only that model. I’m not certain if Auto will honor only the models enabled. The Dev team will need to chime in for that.

Thanks didn’t notice that was a menu in the UI. @deanrie do you know and what is actually default, because my requests in cursor mainly show default. I have only two models selected, but had it on auto. It makes sense for me where the model needs to think for question related requests, whereas implementation would be done with ‘normal’ Claude 3.7.

Honestly, most of the time, you will probably have better luck with 3.5. There are a few prompts that are working well with 3.7, but they are still hit or miss.

I’m working on not only a full set of rules with a multi-mode agent prompt to support it, but I’m also creating a bot to aid with creating prompts and rule files for Cursor on Poe.com. I’ve added my collection of prompting white papers, around 70, along with deep research I’ve been pulling together on prompts that work, rule files that work, and structures and examples to help build rule files based on the user’s specific project, with the focus being Cursor. I also use Roo Code on VSCode, so I may duplicate it and pull research specific to it, but I haven’t decided.

The idea is to lock down a solid User Rules and multi-mode agent prompt, then have a central place to drop those along with the project info, and then have the agent craft rule files specific to your project tailored to your User Rules and agent prompt. I’ll also have directions in the system prompt for the bot to help request all needed information, variables, and specifics pertaining to a given project to ensure continuity between all prompts and rules. This feature will be useful for the memory bank integration.

I’ll share it here on the forums once I’ve completed it.

That sounds great. I am currently using AI to create the prompts from voice to text with superwhisper, i have a custom prompt so that it transforms what I need done into something that resembles a JIRA ticket for a new feature.
