Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, thanks for the report. I’ll need a bit more info to help:

  1. Can you share a screenshot of where you’re trying to switch the model?
  2. Where exactly is the issue, in the Chat panel or in inline edit?
  3. What subscription plan are you on (Free/Pro/Plus)?

The model picker is usually in the bottom-left of the Chat panel. It looks like a dropdown with the model name (Auto/Claude/GPT-4.1/etc). If you don’t see it there, a screenshot will help us figure out what’s going on.

All models (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI) are available on any plan. The only difference is API usage spend. You can check the details in the models documentation.
