Hey, thanks for the report. This is usually related to network connectivity issues.

Please run diagnostics first:

  • Cursor Settings → Network → Run Diagnostics → share a screenshot of the results
  • Request ID: when it gets stuck, click the chat menu (top right) → Copy Request ID

Most common fix (try this first):

  • Disable HTTP/2: Settings Ctrl+, → search “HTTP/2” → enable “Disable HTTP/2” → restart Cursor
  • This often fixes issues caused by your ISP, VPN, or proxy

Other things to check:

  • Do you have MCP servers enabled? Settings → MCP → disable any enabled servers
  • Are you on a VPN or corporate network? Try without VPN
  • Does it work in a fresh new chat?
  • Try restarting your router and computer

Many users with similar “stuck at planning/responding” issues fixed it by disabling HTTP/2 or by talking to their ISP about possible connection interference. Let me know what the diagnostics show.
