Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?
Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
Until a day or two ago, the usage summary reliably appeared at the bottom of the chat window. Now, it doesn’t show up even when “Usage Summary” is set to “Always” in Settings.
Steps to Reproduce
- Set Agents → Usage Summary to “Always”
- Observe absence of usage indicator from chat pane
Expected Behavior
The usage indicator in chat should honor the Usage Summary setting. This is more annoying than just a UI issue, since Settings → Plan & Usage only shows on-demand usage, not the percentage of the subscription token budget that’s been used.

For AI issues: which model did you use?
Probably not applicable, but Opus 4.5 (I also tried switching models but it didn’t make a difference).
Additional Information
Tried restarting the IDE and toggling the Usage Summary from Auto, to Always, to Never and back again. It didn’t resolve the issue.
Does this stop you from using Cursor
No - Cursor works, but with this issue
