Composer 2 Performance Slow Down

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

In Agent or Ask mode, on Auto, Cursor 3.0.13 has been incredibly slow since 5 pm (UTC) last night. It seems there’s a problem with Composer 2.
When I switch to other models from Auto, the process completes quickly.

Hey, I already replied to your duplicate post, I merged the thread here. In short, this is a known issue with routing in Auto mode, for now please pick a model manually. If you’d like to help with debugging, send the Request ID from the slow request.
