GPT 5.1 Codex Max Available in Cursor

The new Codex Max model is available in Cursor! It is free to use until December 11th.

We worked with OpenAI to optimize Cursor’s agent harness for the model. You can find more information here.

Please try it out and let us know what you think!

Regular Codex is the previously existing model.

Please consider a new system for model list within the IDE. This is getting ridiculous.

when will this issues be fixed, these models get better integrated in Cursor?

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I completely agree - the model list has become too long. I’ll pass your request to the team to reconsider the models UI.

By the way, the Codex models are currently being actively optimized together with OpenAI - feedback is being collected in this thread and here: GPT 5.1 Codex models. If you have experience using these models, feel free to share it there.
