Override the OpenAI base URL in Cursor

Cursor can send OpenAI-compatible chat requests to orientx. You keep using Cursor's UI; only the models you attach to this key leave Cursor's own backend.

In Cursor: Settings → Models (or search "OpenAI API Key" in the command palette).

Point Cursor at orientx

  1. Paste your orientx key into the OpenAI API Key field.
  2. Enable Override OpenAI Base URL and set it to https://api.orientx.ai/v1.
  3. Add the model ids you want to use. They must match id values from GET /v1/models exactly — Cursor will not invent names.

Select one of those models in the chat / agent picker before sending.

Tab completion and some Agent features still run on Cursor-hosted models. Only requests for the custom OpenAI models you added go to orientx. If a request fails with 400, the model likely does not support a parameter Cursor sent (tools, vision, and similar).
