Cursor IDE users hit usage limits despite available context

A new user of the Cursor IDE is encountering a "usage limit" error after only a few prompts, despite having ample context tokens remaining. The user is seeking clarification on whether context tokens and usage limits are distinct, if this is normal for the free plan, and if upgrading to Cursor Pro is necessary for continued use of the Agent mode. They are also considering if their app version or configuration might be the cause of the issue. AI
