Cursor silently shifted from request limits to compute limits - devs revolted

Cursor changed its Pro plan from a fixed-request model to compute-based usage with no clear comms. Heavy users hit caps in days. The team apologised and refunded a wave of customers, but the trust dent is real. If you're on Pro and using agents heavily, watch your usage page weekly until pricing stabilises. We're keeping our Pick verdict for now - Cursor is still the best AI editor - but the pricing model is now a real risk factor founders should know about before they commit a team to it.
