Hi,  
Just wanted to ask a question which would clarify a lot of things in my head right now:  
After Opting Out of New Pricing, do I get unlimited slow requests after I have used up my 500 normal/fast requests?

Thanks

No, you will get 225 requests without the slow pool, but there may be rate limits during the request process.

Under my usage summary (Pro plan) I see $20.84 for Claude-4-Sonnet-thinking plus another couple of bucks for the other models which totals slightly more than the Pro sub price.

Does this mean I am on the grace period?  
Should I switch to ‘Auto’?  
Should I switch to usage-based-pricing?

If I am at the limit (after renewing 3 days ago) this means the credit usage is much much higher than the previous plan.

I’ve used MT before and I wasn’t limited, don’t worry, switch between models and don’t worry about it.

It is unbelievable to me that clear pricing structure, after being asked for for months, in numerous flavors, is less likely now than the first time we asked for it.

I have hooted and hollered about this countless times. I see it continuing to regress. A company that makes the revenue they do, with a fractional community dev who sometimes bothers to pop in with AI generic responses, will not prove me wrong.

what a wrong move for cursor the latest updates of request pricing. Now basically there is a lot of confusion

in the uploaded image there is the warning I’ve just received, and I’m using claude 4 sonnet. So I want to understand a detail: if I reach the limits, then I will still have the slow requests using for example claude 3.5 sonnet?
