    What's with the deceptive graph on top? Not including Astra can't have been an oversight, did the model compare poorly to it?

      This explains why. Mentioned in another comment, but cursorbench explicitly tests with Cursor as the harness, and OpenAI doesn&#x27;t allow them to use Astra in Cursor.

        &gt; with a proposed shutoff date of November 12, 2026

        That said, I don&#x27;t expect them to benchmark Astra in their Cursor harness given the situation.

          Cursor never added Astra to its consumer subscription plans. And it&#x27;s likely exactly because of this announcement. Why would they add support for a model they would have to remove shortly after?

          shutoff for existing models, new models stopped as of that announcement, astra will never be on cursor.
