One-Line Flow:
Cursor Pro’s secret sauce got leaked — and while it works, it’s skating on thin ice.
The Hero: yeongpin/cursor-free-vip
Meet Pin Studios’ Cursor Pro Activator v1.10.01 — a cheeky little Python tool that unlocks all the Cursor Pro features you’re not “supposed” to touch.
One tap, and your IDE suddenly thinks you’re premium.
What It Actually Does
- Bypasses trial checks and limits
- Resets your machine ID and Cursor cache
- Spoofs “Pro” mode locally — no server needed
- Stops auto-updates that kill patches
- Keeps count of your AI requests
Basically, it turns “Trial Over” into “Welcome back, legend.”

Menu shortcuts:

Everything’s color-coded, easy, and built for rule-benders.
Quick Setup
-
Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/yeongpin/cursor-free-vip cd cursor-free-vip -
Run it
python cursor_pro_activator.py -
Pick your poison (0–10)
-
Restart Cursor → Boom, Pro mode unlocked.
Tip: Turn off Cursor’s auto-update first — it’ll quietly patch itself back.
The “Cough-Cough” Backup Tricks
If this stops working:
- Rotate machine IDs (fake your hardware).
- Use VMs or Docker for a clean ID every time.
- Create temp accounts via temploop.net.
- Swap config folders manually.
- Reuse old OAuth logins — they’re often less flagged.
Because every lock eventually meets a smarter key.
The Boring (but Important) Part
Ethics & Legality
Bypassing paid limits breaks Cursor’s Terms of Service.
That means potential bans — and if pushed, legal headaches.
It’s also an ethical grey zone: you’re basically freeloading while real devs pay.
Stability & Safety
Cursor updates fast — your patch might die any week.
Also, running random Python scripts = trust issues.
Some users reported hidden telemetry and access risks, so sandbox or VM it if you must.
Safer, Legit Alternatives
If you just want a free, open AI IDE:
- Zed
- Cline
- Tabby
- Void
- Aider
- Continue
- Pythagora
They’re all open-source, privacy-friendly, and don’t treat your code like gossip.
Real-World Status
As of Sept 2025:
- Repo’s still active and maintained.
- Some users say it broke after recent Cursor updates.
- Others still swear by it for sandboxed setups.
The crowd’s split — half call it “freedom,” half call it “foolish.”
Community Buzz
- Fans: “It’s genius — I finally get to test AI tools properly.”
- Critics: “You’re teaching devs to cheat.”
- Middle ground: “Cool experiment, but maybe don’t rely on it at work.”
Even Yeongpin’s README says it’s for “learning and research only.”
Final Verdict
Cursor Free VIP is clever, fast, and undeniably tempting —
but it’s also a reminder that shortcuts usually come with strings.
So if you’re testing, research away.
If you’re working… maybe go legit.
