In the latest version 0.46.8, whenever the agent executes a command in the terminal, it gets stuck until manually canceled. I have tried using Bash, Zsh and Fish, but the issue does not seem to be related to the shell. The command exits successfully, but the agent remains stuck, waiting for the ter…

Hello, thank you for the last update, The bug seems to be fixed! :tada: Please don’t break it again :folded_hands: Version: 1.7.33 (user setup) VSCode Version: 1.99.3 Commit: a84f941711ad680a635c8a3456002833186c4840 Date: 2025-10-03T03:28:06.574Z Electron: 34.5.8 Chromium: 132.0.6834.210 Node.j…

I think it’s theme that cause the issue. I removed the p10k theming and this issue solved. It works fine now even if I still source oh-my-zsh.sh Appreciate!

Still having this problem on Mac. Can’t find anything that works :confused:

I turned this into a User Rule: To reduce hangs, ALWAYS run `powerlevel10k_plugin_unload; unset PROMPT RPROMPT RPS1 RPS2; PS1='%n@%m:%~%# '` in the first terminal before any running any command.

Of course this doesn’t work… now Cursor is suggesting the above Cursor Rule over actual commands it’s trying to suggest :joy: :melting_face: :sob: [image]

same I feel like I spend more time killing have to get the terminal commands to exit

Same here, it’s really annoying :frowning: working in the terminal is sometimes just impossible.. Also, tried the fix @carlosrivera suggested - didn’t help

Same problem here using Windows Powershell. Spamming return inside the tool makes it continue though.

Same problem here using Windows Powershell!!

same issue in windows powershell. Only workaround i have found is to just spam returns into the terminal. Absolutely most annoying issue with cursor right now.
