Cursor

Configure Cursor to use Engy models through a custom OpenAI base URL.

This page explains how to add Engy models to Cursor. It is intended for developers who want to use open models from Engy in the Cursor editor.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • Cursor with a paid plan. On the free plan, Cursor does not allow custom models and shows the message "Named models unavailable"
  • An Engy API key. For details, see API keys

Configure Cursor

Open the API key settings

In Cursor, open Cursor Settings, go to Models, and expand API Keys.

Enter the Engy key and base URL

Under OpenAI API Key, set the following values:

FieldValue
OpenAI API KeyYour Engy API key
Override OpenAI Base URLhttps://api.engy.ai/v1

Turn on the Override OpenAI Base URL toggle, and then click Verify.

Add a model

Under Models, click + Add model, and enter engy/glm-5.2. Turn on the model.

Select the model

In the chat panel, select the model that you added.

Model names

Cursor requires custom model names in vendor/model form. Prefix the Engy model ID with engy/, for example engy/qwen3.8-27b or engy/deepseek-v4-flash-0731.

Engy ignores the prefix, so the model and the price are the same as without it. The part after the prefix must match a model ID exactly. For the list of model IDs, see Models and pricing.

Limitations

  • Custom models are available in the chat and plan panel only. Tab completion and Composer continue to use Cursor's own models.
  • Cursor sends the requests from its own servers, not from your computer. The configuration therefore works on any machine.
