Cursor integrates GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, Luna
Cursor has introduced support for the new GPT-5.6 model suite, comprising Sol, Terra, and Luna. In CursorBench evaluations testing multi-file agentic coding tasks, GPT-5.6 Sol achieved a 67.2% score with an average cost of $5.22 per task, offering developers a powerful new choice for high-context coding.
While frontier models continue to push raw capability, the real battlefield has shifted to cost-to-performance efficiency in agentic workflows.
* GPT-5.6 Sol Max scores 67.2% at $5.22 per task, a massive cost reduction compared to Fable 5 Max which costs $17.32 per task for a 70.5% score.
* GPT-5.6 Terra and Luna offer even lower-cost options, with Luna Max achieving a 61.1% score at a minimal cost of $1.85 per task.
* The presence of highly efficient competitors like Grok 4.5 (scoring 66.7% at $1.51 per task) highlights the intense industry focus on reducing inference costs for agentic IDE workflows.
