Cursor ToS questioned over third-party API access

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A user on Reddit is seeking clarification regarding Cursor's Terms of Service (ToS) concerning the use of third-party tools that access its private agent endpoints. Specifically, they are asking if using Oh My Pi's Cursor provider or a self-hosted OpenAI-compatible proxy to interact with Cursor's internal APIs violates the ToS. Cursor's staff have previously indicated that unofficial proxies accessing private client endpoints go against their use restrictions, suggesting the official CLI/SDK as the only supported method outside the IDE.
