Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Deepseek v3.1 is sometimes considered as a premium request.
it does not happen alway; but happens when I use it repeatedly(I assume it is being calulated a 0.33 of a premium request).

Steps to Reproduce

Sending request to deepseekv3.1 repeatedly.

Expected Behavior

I assume it should not be counted as a premium request.

Hey, thanks for the report. I believe if you are on a legacy plan, this doesn’t count as a premium request, but I’ll confirm this with the team.
