Subject: [PATCH] docs(cursor): add model picker and provider notes for local
 spawn

Add a section to sh/local/README.md noting that the "Custom model"
setup option must be selected to get the OpenRouter model picker when
spawning Cursor locally, and that only Cursor IDE-supported providers
work (linking to Cursor's supported providers docs).

+## Cursor CLI — Local Model Picker
+
+When spawning Cursor locally, select the **Custom model** setup option to get the
+OpenRouter model picker. Without it, Cursor uses its default model.
+
+```bash
+# Install Spawn
+curl -fsSL https://openrouter.ai/labs/spawn/cli/install.sh | bash
+
+# Launch — select "Custom model" when prompted for setup options
+spawn cursor local
+```
+
+> **Supported providers:** Only providers supported by Cursor's API key
+> integration work locally. See
+> [Cursor docs — What providers are supported?](https://cursor.com/help/models-and-usage/api-keys#what-providers-are-supported)
+> for the current list.
