Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey there!

Can you give Cursor 2.3 a try? If it hasn’t rolled out to you automatically yet, you can download it from Download · Cursor. There have been several improvements around MCP since 2.2.

Hi Colin,

Tried 2.3 as well. Still the same error.

Thanks,

Sameer

Thanks!

In the meantime, I found another case of a user dealing with this and the Snowflake MCP server.

Good news: The MCP server should still work just fine. Can you confirm that?

There’s an open PR to change this from an error to a warning. I’ll check on its status!

Hi Colin,

Yes you are right. The MCP setup still works.

Thank you so much. Hopefully the error will be fixed shortly.

Thanks,
Sameer

The fix has been pushed to 2.3 (moving the error to a warning) so in your next auto-update, you should no longer see the error!
