Hi all – unfortunately this extension is incompatible with Cursor. Would recommend using the SQLTools family of extensions for SQL support.

SQL tools kinda ■■■■ compared to this :slight_smile:

If it’s open source it shouldn’t be too hard to integrate, right?

It’s not open source unfortunately!

You can install directly from .vsix, using transformer scripts floating around.

This repo has some up-to-date ones:

The v2 script worked great. Once you’ve download the .vsix bundle, use “Extensions: Install from VSIX” from the Command Palette and you’re off to the races.

This approach worked marvelous to me. Thank you!

Currently you can download the vsix file from here and drag into the extensions section of cursor to install

You might want to change the version to use a more recent one in the future.
