Transparency on usage

Describe the Bug

After the first query of the day (Sonnet Max): “You have used 90% of your included usage. Consider enabling pay-as-you-go or switch to Auto for unlimited requests to avoid interruptions.”

Now we need to be clear. What is my included usage??

Steps to Reproduce

Use the latest Cursor version as of today, enter the prompt, wait a minute, get the warning, wonder what exactly it means.

Expected Behavior

Transparently tell me this is my daily/monthly/session usage.

Operating System

MacOS

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor

From docs:

Expected usage within limits

Expected usage within limits for the median user per month:

  • Pro: ~225 Sonnet 4 requests, ~550 Gemini requests, or ~650 GPT 4.1 requests
  • Pro+: ~675 Sonnet 4 requests, ~1,650 Gemini requests, or ~1,950 GPT 4.1 requests
  • Ultra: ~4,500 Sonnet 4 requests, ~11,000 Gemini requests, or ~13,000 GPT 4.1 requests

Models like Opus 4 consume more tokens per request and reach rate limits faster than other models.
