What I found:
Cursor documents two separate monthly usage pools and states that when a specific third-party model is selected, usage is drawn from the Other Models pool at that model’s API rate; both pools are visible in editor settings and on the usage dashboard.
The retrieved official Models & Pricing markdown describes pools, plan inclusion of Other Models, and per-model $/1M pricing tables but does not document a formula tying the Other Models dashboard percentage to Usage CSV token totals times published rates divided by a stated dollar cap.
Evidence:

Still unknown:
Whether Cursor internally still meters Other Models against a ~$400 Ultra ceiling, a lower effective cap, or non-dollar units that can make the bar reach 100% while included-dollar summaries still show headroom.
Useful next check:
