Why can’t I switch models in a new conversation after sending only one message?

I’m also facing this issue. I think it’s a useful feature and shouldn’t be removed.

Hey, thanks for the report.

I’ll need a bit more info to figure it out:

  1. What Cursor version are you on? Help > About Cursor > Copy
  2. Does this happen only in MAX mode, or in normal mode too?
  3. Can you reproduce it every time?
  4. Is the project local or cloud-based remote/SSH? Are you using worktrees?

For now, the workaround is to duplicate the chat (three dots in the chat menu > Fork Chat) and pick a different model in the copy. That keeps the context. Or start a new chat with Cmd+N or Ctrl+N.
