Why was the "Apply" diff functionality removed for Azure OpenAI API Key use?

[strauberry]

Today I just discovered that trying to use the “Apply” function to generate inline diffs is now paywalled behind a pro subscription. Was this an intentional change?

Because of my company’s data privacy policies I was using an Azure API key deployment rather than the Cursor “Pro” plan, and it worked fantastic for the last few months but now this is a severely limiting factor for me.

If it comes down to it, I would personally pay out of pocket for some kind of “Basic” plan to re-enable these custom API features and not have to add another $20 AI Subscription to my monthly costs if necessary.

But maybe this was just an oversight and not an intentional change? Would be curious to hear back from the devs on this.

Cheers

‘Apply’ also does not work with API keys for openAI and Anthropic.

I would also be willing to pay a smaller fee than the $20 to unlock UI features while using my own API keys.

the apply feature (and Cursor Tab) is based on custom models that can’t be billed to an api key. we currently don’t have any non-pro options to access these features unfortunately

Thanks, that is interesting, and frustrating. I would pay per token or a smaller subscription amount for any proprietary features like that, but the pro subscription just for that if you already use API keys for other things just doesn’t make much sense.
