Cursor IDE
Describe the request
It would be great to set a limit on how much can be spend on a single task. As models become more and more expensive, it becomes easy to burn more credits than expected. For example, the new Claude Fable 5 is fantastic for long running tasks, but you can’t limit it’s spending up front.
Imagine you want to build an application, but you do not want to spend more than $50 building it. It would be great to tell the system your budget and let it no longer run than the budget accounts for. Even better would be that the model understands this limitation and adapts it’s plan to the budget (example: more basic GUI, more or less features, etc.). But just a hard limit would be a great start.
