Cursor on Windows
May 7, 2026 ยท View on GitHub
Cursor support is preview support. The Windows public preview uses a manual cookie header only.
Credential Source
Copy the Cookie: header from a signed-in request to https://cursor.com, then paste it into the Cursor manual cookie field in CodexBar Settings.
This manual cookie header flow is preview-only and may be replaced by a more ergonomic account flow later.
What CodexBar Reads
CodexBar reads the Cursor manual cookie header from its local settings. It does not import browser cookies automatically in the Windows preview.
Endpoint Family
CodexBar calls Cursor account and usage endpoint families on cursor.com, including usage summary and current account metadata.
What Is Displayed
The tray popover can show:
- Cursor account email when available
- Included plan usage
- On-demand usage
- Billing cycle reset time when returned by Cursor
Common Setup Errors
- Missing cookie header: paste the full
Cookie:header, not an individual token value. - Expired cookie: sign in to Cursor in your browser and copy a fresh request header.
- Usage data is empty: Cursor may have changed the preview API shape, or the account may not expose the requested usage fields.
- Browser privacy tools remove cookies: copy the header from a normal signed-in Cursor dashboard request.
