Cursor - Build Software Faster
Using Cursor chat, Ctrl/⌘ K, and terminal Ctrl/⌘ K, you can easily switch between different models of your choice.
Model Dropdown
Below the AI input box, you'll see a dropdown menu that allows you to select which model you want to use. By default, Cursor has the following models ready to use:
GPT-4o
GPT-4
Claude 3.5 Sonnet
cursor-small
cursor-small
is Cursor's custom model that's not as smart asGPT-4
but is faster and available for unlimited use.
You can add additional models under Cursor Settings
> Models
> Model Names
.
Long Context Models Only
In long context chats, model selection is limited to models that support long context:
gpt-4o-128k
gemini-1.5-flash-500k
claude-3-haiku-200k
claude-3-sonnet-200k
claude-3-5-sonnet-200k
What Context Window Does Model X Use?
In chat, we currently limit to about 20,000 tokens (or less if the model doesn't support that much context). For cmd-K, we limit to about 10,000 tokens to balance response time and quality. Long context chats use the model's maximum context window.
