I have updated to Cursor version 0.47 recently and I am trying the new Auto option for models. This is interesting feature, but I have question about it.
Is there any way to see which model Cursor chose when I use this Auto option? I want to know which model it selects for my queries. This information would be helpful for me to understand how it works.
Yeah, exactly. If it acts greedy, I automatically think it chose sonnet 3.7 
Is it more stable than the .46 release was?
I can’t be certain but I’m hoping its first pass at a feature I outlined here: Ability to designate model used for given tasks
With any luck we will be able to designate preferred models for each type of task soon, or even designate specific chat types now that there are custom chat types as well.
I think if they nail this set of features, it will drastically speed up agentic interactions, using lightning fast models everywhere it can without compromising overall quality.
I had no probs with 0.46, so hard to say. 0.47 has some small UI kinks, the most annoying is changing from agent to ask mode often.
It seems like you are trying to take OpenAI’s GPT-5 approach here, where it’s using multiple models behind the scenes, but for a developer audience, especially a paying one, we want the transparency to know which model is being used for a given request. Auto-routing and cost optimization is great, but don’t hide the model from the user; it reduces our trust in the product and the company to have things hidden from us.
I had the same issue about the auto Selection, so i just added this to my user Rules and now it says which model uses on each thread
Hope it helps
