Question about Pro plan usage pattern and access to Claude 4 / Max mode

Hi Cursor team and community,

I just saw the announcement about the new Ultra plan and the updates to the Pro plan — really exciting changes!

I have a couple of questions regarding the new default Pro mode (“unlimited-with-rate-limits”):
1. Under this new mode, does usage get queued during peak hours, while off-peak usage is mostly smooth and unrestricted?
2. Are Claude 4 and Max mode currently unavailable when using the default Pro plan?
From what I’ve observed, it looks like these options are only accessible if I switch back to the legacy “500 request limit” mode — just wanted to confirm if that’s intended behavior.

Would appreciate any clarification from the team or other users. Thanks again for continuously improving the product — the new pricing structure looks very promising!
