Hey, thanks for the report.
Quick workaround to try:
- App Settings
Ctrl+,→ search “HTTP/2” → enable “Disable HTTP/2” → restart Cursor → test chat again.
If it still fails, please share:
- Settings → Network → Run Diagnostics (screenshot)
- Your ISP and whether you’re using any firewall/proxy (e.g., Zscaler)
Reference: another user hit the same SSL alert and disabling HTTP/2 fixed it: SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE when creating new chat
Let me know if the HTTP/2 toggle helps.
