so i turned off auto model. as it is attempting to use openAI models when i do not have them as an option.

so now i have two features turned off. tabbed chats and auto model.

ETA on fixing these bugs?

OpenAI was experiencing an outage, which is affecting some of the experiences in Cursor. Switching off of auto and onto a Claude or Gemini model for the duration of the issue should help get things back to working for you. But, as of just moments ago, this should already be resolved.

Thanks. Figured it out. Better notifications would keep me from bugging the forum.
