Summary

Browser sign-in left Usage → Limits empty for Cursor even when token history worked. The driver passed the session credential as CURSOR_API_KEY, and the limits probe treats API keys as unsupported.

Map browser sessions to CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN for the dashboard probe; keep explicit CURSOR_API_KEY accounts unsupported.

Test plan

Sign in to Cursor with browser auth, open Usage → Limits, confirm Overall / Cursor Models / Other Models appear
Confirm an explicit CURSOR_API_KEY instance still does not report subscription limits

fix(provider-cursor): report usage limits after browser sign-in2c267e9

MmacroscopeappBot11d ago

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — The change enables Cursor usage reporting after browser sign-in. It also allows that stored credential to be sent to a configured custom usage endpoint; the intended trust boundary needs confirmation before exposing sign-in credentials there.

Walkthrough

Cursor usage-limit lookups now use CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN for browser-session credentials and retain CURSOR_API_KEY for explicit API keys. Tests cover credential mapping and browser-session usage retrieval. The documentation describes supported sign-in methods and the API-key limitation.

Changes: Cursor usage limits

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Usage-probe credential mapping `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/usageLimits.ts`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/usageLimits.test.ts`	The environment helper maps browser-session credentials to `CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN` and clears a stale `CURSOR_API_KEY`. Explicit API keys remain in `CURSOR_API_KEY`, and unrelated environment variables are preserved. Tests cover both mappings.
Driver lookup and documented behavior `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/driver.ts`, `packages/provider-cursor/src/server/driver.test.ts`, `docs/user/usage.md`	The driver passes the mapped environment to the usage-limits lookup. The browser-authentication test checks the bearer token and returned usage percentage. The documentation adds T3 browser sign-in and clarifies that an explicit `CURSOR_API_KEY` does not report subscription limits.

Merge Risk: External image Moderate · up to cc799

Browser sign-in now supplies usage-limit credentials. If a server-wide CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN is also set, other Cursor accounts can show that token's limits as their own. This only affects multi-account setups with an explicit token, so it should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merge.

Preserve an explicit CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN.

Browser sign-in stores a Cursor apiKey, not a dashboard accessToken. The repository does not establish whether GetCurrentPeriodUsage accepts that API key, so the reported 401 is not supported by the inspected source.

The overwrite is real. In browser-session mode, this code replaces any configured token before readCursorUsageLimits sends the bearer request. Preserve a non-empty configured token and update the test to cover that case.

✅ Addressed in commit cc799c9

WwSedlacek11d ago

Fixed in cc799c928c — browser mode now keeps a non-empty configured CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN and only falls back to the session token when none is set. Test updated accordingly.

CcoderabbitaiBot11d ago

@wSedlacek Thanks for the fix. The supplied code preserves a non-empty configured CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN and uses the session token only when the configured token is absent or blank. This addresses the finding.

Check the configured token’s account before attaching limits.

mergeProviderInstanceEnvironment inherits the server environment for every instance. If its CURSOR_AUTH_TOKEN belongs to account A, a browser instance signed in as account B uses A’s token here. The driver then attaches A’s limits to B’s snapshot, and the limits collector keys them by B’s email. This can misreport and double-count A’s allowance. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Verify the token belongs to the instance before attaching its limits, or prevent an inherited token from being applied to unrelated instances.
