Since this morning, I haven’t been able to use Cursor Composer, although the chat is working fine.

We’re having trouble connecting to Anthropic. This might be temporary - please try again in a moment.

Hey, we did have some downtime earlier, but that should all be resolved now.  
Can you confirm you are still having issues?

The same issue occurs for both Sonnet 3.5 and GPT-4.0.

Hey, it looks like those conversations may be kind of corrupted, as the LLM is not correctly returning its output in the right format for Cursor to use.

If you start a new chat, does this issue still occur?

Hey, it looks like Google is rejecting some queries to this model due to rate limiting, but it should be resolved shortly!

Will check with the team to ensure this happens.

It was happening from the first request, wasn’t able to get any request to 1206 through, so there shouldn’t be a rate limit being hit (from my pov)? Just fyi. 🙂  
P.S.: oh, could’ve been the amount of tokens itself that hit the limit, I guess

Sorry, to be clear, this could be a global rate limit for all Cursor users, not just your own!

I seem to be having this issue too even with a new composer chat.

Hey, looks like you have an unsupported image in your chat history.  
I’d recommend starting a new chat, or going through and deleting the images.

Cursor currently supports jpeg, png, gif, or webp for image uploads.
