Constant terminal hanging

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Has been happening since I started paying for this product. Things will be running smoothly for a few commands, then all of a sudden, the terminal will just hang and get caught up. No way to get Cursor to progress without skipping (sometimes doesn’t even work) or telling the agent to proceed. Even after telling it to proceed, the problem will continue to occur until you’ve created an entirely new chat, popped out the terminal, and destroyed it, or tried any variation of other random fixes.

Windows 11 Home, have tried using multiple different terminals (currently Git Bash). Why is this so persistent? It completely destroys my workflow.

Steps to Reproduce

Use the product during an SSH session. Wait patiently. Watch your terminal get caught up and hang after a tool use.
