Claude Haiku 5.5 is now available in Cursor! On shorter requests, it costs 10x less than Claude Haiku 4.5. Turn it on in Cursor Settings > Models.

Why it matters

Haiku 5.5 costs $0.10/M input and $0.50/M output under 100k in Cursor, and Sonnet 5.5 cache reads dropped from $0.20/M to $0.10/M. Both lower the cost of loops.
