Thinking effort, auto updates

  • Pick how hard the model thinks. A new effort button sits in the chat box next to the model: Auto, Off, Low, Medium, High or Max. It works for API models that can think, and for Claude Code (--effort) and Codex (model_reasoning_effort). Auto keeps what happened before: API models think at high, Claude Code and Codex use their own default. Also in Settings > General, and as Set Thinking Effort in the command palette.
  • Auto updates. The update notice now has Enable auto updates. With it on, new versions download in the background and install the next time OpenCursor quits; a status bar item lets you restart right away. Change it any time in Settings > General > Updates. Linux .deb and .rpm installs still ask, since they need your password.
  • The anonymous install count works. It was silent in every release so far, because it read the editor's default telemetry setting, which OpenCursor ships as off. It now only stops when you turn telemetry off yourself, or turn the count off in Settings > General > Privacy. What it sends is unchanged: a random ID, the version and the OS.

Install

macOS and Linux:

curl -fsSL https://opencursor.org/install.sh | sh

Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://opencursor.org/install.ps1 | iex

Already have OpenCursor? It offers this update by itself, or run Check for Updates from the command palette.

Builds are not signed yet, so a downloaded file needs one extra step the first time (the install commands skip it):

  • macOS: open the app once, then System Settings > Privacy & Security > Open Anyway.
  • Windows: on the SmartScreen prompt, choose More info > Run anyway.
