Background Agent not creating a PR

Describe the Bug

My background agent settings has “Open PR by Default” set to true
I launched a couple new background agents, when complete it creates a branch cursor/description which is great… but it doesn’t actually open a PR

Steps to Reproduce

Toggle “Open PR by Default” on, save settings
Launch a new background agent and wait for it to complete

Expected Behavior

New cursor/ branch created with a PR opened against default branch

Screenshots / Screen Recordings

Operating System

MacOS

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

web UI cursor.com background agent

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

i’m also having this issue. i see a warning about background agent service degredation so maybe that’s it…
