How can I use opus 4.6 with Cursor ACP in IntelliJ IDEA?

Hi,

I’ve set up Cursor ACP in IntelliJ IDEA and got all the models shown in the window. It works fine with auto. It told me to add a payment method when I’m using Opus 4.6.

I’ve checked my limit and payment settings, and it works fine in Cursor GUI. My limit is currently at $100 / $200.

Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue. ACP can currently handle billing incorrectly for non-auto models, which can trigger a payment method request even if everything is already set up.

The team is aware of it. For now, you can use auto as a workaround. It will automatically pick the best model.

To help with debugging, can you share:

  1. The exact error text or a screenshot of what you see when selecting Opus 4.6
  2. Your Cursor CLI version cursor-agent --version

Let me know if you have any questions.
