Spend limit indicator broken

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

For those of us using usage based pricing, there is a chunk of realestate completely taken up with a warning that you’ve used everything up, which is of course not accurate on a usage plan. Would be great to hide this field to get screen space back, or even better show the actual account $/token usage and any account limits on a progress bar or numerically. As it stands though, its just in the way.

Steps to Reproduce

open cursor on an account with usage based pricing.

Operating System

MacOS

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

This specifically

Hey, thanks for the report.

A couple things to check. The “$20 / $20 included usage” bar means you’ve used up the included usage in your team plan. “+$61.80 free usage on us” is a separate promo credit. Once both are used up, Cursor will switch to on-demand billing if it’s enabled.

Can you check two things:

  1. In the Spending tab in your dashboard, is on-demand enabled, and what spending limit is set?
  2. Are AI features actually blocked, or is it just a visual issue where the warning shows but everything still works?

If on-demand is enabled and everything works fine, then the “You’ve hit your usage limit” banner is just worded badly for your case. It should say something like “included limit reached, on-demand is active.” Either way, I’ll pass this to the team since the UX is confusing for usage-based plans.

Let me know what you see in the dashboard.

Yeah Im not actually blocked, everything continues to work. What Im saying is, if you detect the person is on a usage based plan, change that to show the usage plan numbers not the monthly numbers (which are largely utterly irrelevant in this case) or just hide it altogether.
