Pricing Megathread and Q&A

I’m using version 0.5.* of the IDE and don’t see this option.
This isn’t a reason for a refund restriction.

The funny thing is this:

You don’t see this button?

Maybe its a regional or some other unique thing. You’re better of messaging a rep.

This isn’t a refund channel; it’s for managing subscriptions.
I’ve already contacted customer service, complaining only about the platform’s naivety.

You’re right. They changed it.

Hi Jim,
Can you provide guide to setup Codex IDE in cursor (Windows)?

What? It’s extremely simple.

Cursor

  1. Open Cursor → Open left sidebar → Extensions (left sidebar).

  2. Search for “OpenAI Codex ”Install.

  3. That’s it. Login ChatGPT via Codex to start using it.

  4. You can move Codex to right panel and to bottom panel.

Thanks Jim.

Awesome man, didn’t know that honestly.

Hey, if you wish IDE version, there’s also Gemini Code Assist (Google), Claude Code (Anthropic), Cline (use models via api such as OpenRouter), etc.

If you have google account, you can use Gemini Code Assist up to 1000 requests per day with 0 charge. (Gemini 2.5 Pro) No Enterprise account! Just personal account required. If you subscribed to Google AI it’s gonna be 1500 requests per day.

Claude Code is usable within Anthropic subscription. $20, $100, $200 plans.

Cline is pure pay-as-you-go. Or start using with other local models via ollama/llama.cpp (such as gpt-oss-20b) etc.

And there’s other bunch of CLI tools, Cursor CLI, Cluade Code, Gemini CLI, Codex (CLI Version), etc.

And other VSCode forked IDEs, VSCode (Copilot), Windsurf, Kiro, etc

There are many tools to start programming outside of Cursor!
