Cursor
Cursor is an AI code editor. It lets you point the OpenAI API at a custom address, so you can drive its chat with the platform's models.
Steps
- Open Cursor and go to Settings → Models.
- Expand the OpenAI API Key section:
- Enter your
sk-.... - Enable Override OpenAI Base URL and set it to
https://gateway.mindproxy.ai/v1.
- Enter your
- Add model in the model list and enter a supported model ID, e.g.
gpt-4o-mini. - Click Verify / Save. Verification sends one request to the endpoint; passing means you're connected.
Cursor limitations
- Some advanced Cursor features (Tab completion, Agent, etc.) rely on its official backend; a custom OpenAI address mainly affects chat. How fully it can substitute depends on the Cursor version's support for custom endpoints.
- Verification sends a test request with the chosen model, so make sure that model is in your key's scope and your account has balance.
Troubleshooting
- Verify fails / 401: check the key and base URL (must include
/v1). - Some features don't work: that's Cursor's custom-endpoint boundary, not a platform issue.
