- Configure Cursor to use your ngrok URL as the API endpoint
For full details on each step, please see the Installation Guide.
- Configure Cursor to use Cursor Lens as its API endpoint by overriding
OpenAI Base URL. - Choose a
gpt-model. Use Cursor as normal for AI-assisted coding. - Visit the Cursor Lens dashboard to view logs, statistics, and insights.
- Create a new config on
/configurationpage, chooseantropicCachedwith Sonnet 3.5. Name it as you like. - Mark it as default.
- Use Cursor with CursorLens as normal. The system and context messages in
CMD+LandCMD+ichats will be cached from now on.
Note that TTL for the cache is 5 minutes.
- Add new cost calculation
To run it, make sure to run:
npx prisma seed dband thenpnpm run update-log-coststo add cost info in metadata for all previous logs
- Add Anthropic Cache support for context messages
- Increase Token limit for Anthropic to 8192 tokens
- Improved statistics page: Now you can select the data points you want to see
- Log details are now collapsible
- Full response is captured in the logs
- Added support for Mistral AI, Cohere, Groq, and Ollama
This is the initial alpha release of CursorLens. As an alpha version, it may contain bugs and is not yet feature-complete. Use with caution in non-production environments.
