I am using Opus 4.5 in Cursor and am consistently encountering an error that prevents the model from responding only when building a plan or running in Agent mode.
The model works correctly in Plan mode, but once I proceed to Build the plan or switch to Agent mode, the request fails and no response is returned.
Steps to Reproduce
Select Opus 4.5 as the active model
Enter a prompt and run it in Plan mode (works as expected)
Click Build Plan or switch to Agent mode
Observe that the request fails and the error ERROR_OPENAI – Unable to reach the model provider is returned
Expected Behavior
Opus 4.5 should respond successfully in all modes, including Plan, Build Plan, and Agent mode.
Operating System
Windows 10/11
Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

I followed these steps, but I still have the same issue. I don’t have the Nx installed as well
Also, I disabled HTTP/2.
I am from Turkey, and I don’t use vpn or proxy, and I don’t have any extensions installed. Everything was working fine from yesterday; this issue started today

I can see network diagnostics pass but the ConnectError: [unavailable] still happens specifically in Agent/Build mode. This pattern suggests the issue may be regional.
Could you please try one more thing:
Test in Ask mode (not Agent) - does the same model work there?
Try launching with a clean profile from terminal:
cursor --user-data-dir=%TEMP%\cursor-test
Then test Agent mode in this fresh instance.
Share 2-3 new Request IDs from failed attempts after the clean profile test.
We’re tracking similar regional issues and the request IDs will help us investigate further.
