Agents Window should support some essential extensions like pyright

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

All the models I use like Compose 2.5 and GPT 5.5 may generate type errors such as those shown in the image below occasionally and could not detect them using the lint error checking tool, and Agents Window is unable to display these errors. As such, I often have to switch to Cursor IDE to check if there are any such errors. This is probably due to the fact that Agents Window does not support extensions including pyright. Hope Cursor can find a way to support some essential extensions in Agents Window.

Hi @GitandGeek Thanks for the forum post. Thanks for sharing this concrete example. We’re working on getting the Agents view to feature parity as the IDE and you’ve definitely stumbled upon a gap. I reproduced the type of issue you are facing.

You can enable LSP from the file tab in a Python file in a code tab in the Agents Window.

However, it does not seem to provide the same functionality as the regular IDE view where it can provide clear error messages like the below:
