Cursor errors / Rate limit
We've hit a rate limit with the provider. Please switch to the 'auto' model, another model, or try again in a few moments.
Cause
Cursor's upstream AI provider temporarily throttled requests due to high demand or plan-level throughput limits.
Fix
Switch the active model to 'auto' or a different model in the model picker. Wait 30-60 seconds and retry. If it persists, check your provider's usage dashboard for quota exhaustion. A higher Cursor/provider tier increases throughput.
