OpenAI Ends Cursor Access After SpaceX Acquisition

OpenAI is ending its model supply agreement with coding platform Cursor. This follows Cursor's acquisition by Elon Musk's SpaceX. Direct access to OpenAI models through Cursor is set to stop on November 12, 2026. OpenAI stated it formally notified SpaceX about the decision. The agreement allows OpenAI to cancel the partnership after a change in Cursor's corporate control. The company cites concerns about whether SpaceX would use its technology in accordance with its terms of service. They also mentioned past contractual experiences with other Musk-controlled companies. Due to greater safeguards, future models, including the upcoming Astra, will not be supplied to Cursor under the current arrangement. OpenAI acknowledges that developers relying on their models through Cursor will be affected and pledges support during this transition. This change impacts developers who use OpenAI's technology through the Cursor platform.
