Cursor
Cursor can send chat and agent requests to Standard Compute through its OpenAI base URL override.
Setup
- Open Cursor Settings → Models. Enable OpenAI API Key and enter your Standard Compute key.
- Enable Override OpenAI Base URL and enter
https://api.stdcmpt.com/v1. - Add
standardcomputeas a custom model and enable it. - Select it in a new chat and send a small request. Confirm it appears in Request Logs.
Use standardcompute for smart routing, or an exact model ID from the Models page to pin a model.
Limitations
- Custom API keys don't cover Cursor Tab completion.
- Requests still pass through Cursor's servers.
- Support for custom endpoints and model features varies by Cursor version. Try a real agent task before relying on it.
Troubleshooting
If the override setting is missing, check your Cursor version and Cursor's API key documentation. If a model is rejected, confirm its exact ID and your available budget.
To disconnect, restore your previous OpenAI key and base URL, or disable the override and the custom model.
