💡 Little-known hack to get the most out of Cursor for FREE

If you’re using Cursor on the free plan, you will eventually hit the dreaded “servers overload” screen.

But here’s a trick most people don’t know. 🛠️ You can still use Agent mode for FREE with a few tweaks:

1️⃣ Turn on Free Models with Agent capabilities in Cursor -> Settings -> Models. 2️⃣ Manually select the model from the dropdown

Boom. You can continue using Agent mode without paying a cent.

Some limitations:

No tab completion. But who needs tab completions when you can vibe code with agents?

The free models aren’t the best for deep coding tasks. No choice, this is a compromise you have to make. If you code regularly, I would still advise you to go for PRO. It is worth every penny.
