Cursor
Use OhMyGPT models in Cursor chat and agent with your OhMyGPT key.
Cursor's chat and agent can run on any OhMyGPT model. Enter your OhMyGPT key and one base URL in Cursor's settings, add the model IDs you want, and they appear in the model picker next to Cursor's own.
Configure
- Open Cursor Settings → Models and expand API Keys.
- Paste your OhMyGPT key into OpenAI API Key and turn the key on.
- Turn on Override OpenAI Base URL and enter
https://api.ohmygpt.com/v1. - In the model list on the same page, add a custom model and type an OhMyGPT model ID exactly as
GET /v1/modelslists it, for exampleanthropic/claude-sonnet-5-5. - Pick that model in the chat model selector.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| OpenAI API Key | your OhMyGPT key |
| Override OpenAI Base URL | https://api.ohmygpt.com/v1 |
| Model | an ID from Choose a model |
Cursor sends these requests from its own servers, so your key and prompts pass through Cursor on their way to OhMyGPT.
What runs on OhMyGPT
- Chat and agent requests for the model IDs you added.
- Cursor's built-in OpenAI models, while the override is on. Turn the override off to use them on your Cursor plan.
Tab completion and Cursor's other built-in models keep running on Cursor's own service.
Check the connection
Cursor sends Chat Completions requests. Send one to the free test model ohmygpt/mock:
curl https://api.ohmygpt.com/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $OHMYGPT_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model": "ohmygpt/mock", "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "ping"}]}'{
"id": "chatcmpl-ohmygpt-mock",
"object": "chat.completion",
"model": "mock",
"choices": [
{
"index": 0,
"message": {
"role": "assistant",
"content": "This is a mock reply from OhMyGPT. Your integration works; switch to a real model when ready."
},
"finish_reason": "stop"
}
],
"usage": { "prompt_tokens": 15, "completion_tokens": 17, "total_tokens": 32 }
}To check Cursor's side for free, add ohmygpt/mock as a custom model and send a chat message; the reply above appears in the chat. The mock is available once your account has been topped up.
Choose a model
Every chat model works with Cursor:
curl -s https://api.ohmygpt.com/v1/models \
| jq -r '.data[] | select(.available and any(.protocols[]?; .id == "openai-completions")) | .id'Use the full ID, including the creator prefix (anthropic/, openai/, zhipu/ and so on). Prices for each are on the Models page.
Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
404 on every request | The base URL is missing /v1, or ends in /chat/completions | Enter exactly https://api.ohmygpt.com/v1 |
401 with Invalid API key | The key in OpenAI API Key is mistyped or was deleted | Copy a key from API keys |
404 saying the model does not exist | The custom model name is not an OhMyGPT ID | Copy the ID from GET /v1/models |
| Requests still go to OpenAI | Override OpenAI Base URL is off | Turn it on |
402 | The balance or the key's spending limit is used up | Top up at Billing |
Every response carries an X-Request-ID header, and Usage shows what each request cost.
