CMD+Click / Hover on functions for type definitions doesn't work

[passentorp]

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I cannot get Cmd+click to work on function anymore. I have tried multiple repositories. It works when i try in VsCode so it must be cursor related. I have tried opening extensions disabled, tried reviewing settings but nothing makes it work. Also tried deleting cache.

Steps to Reproduce

Hover over a function name to see type definitions for example.

Expected Behavior

I should see type definitions etc. on hover and be able to go to a definiton with click.

Hey, thanks for the report. It looks like the TypeScript language server isn’t responding in time or is stuck.

Can you check a couple things?

1. Output panel: View > Output > select “TypeScript” in the dropdown. Do you see any errors there?

2. What TypeScript extensions are installed? It should be either the built-in TypeScript Language Features or a separately installed one. In Extensions, check that they’re enabled.

3. Try restarting the TS server: Cmd+Shift+P > “TypeScript: Restart TS Server”

4. Project size: if this is a large monorepo, the TS server can slow down. You can try adding this setting: "typescript.tsserver.maxTsServerMemory": 4096

If restarting the TS server doesn’t change anything, send what the TypeScript Output panel shows.
