Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

I can see from the errors in your console (ConnectError: [not_found] on transport) that requests aren’t reaching our servers at all. Since you’re on the Nightly release track (3.0.4), this could be related to a nightly-specific endpoint issue.

A few things to try:

  1. Switch to the Stable release track: Nightly builds can have transient API issues. Go to Cursor Settings > About and switch from Nightly to Default (Stable). This is the most likely fix given the not_found error.

  2. Disable HTTP/2: Open settings.json (Cmd+Shift+P > Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)) and add:

    "cursor.general.disableHttp2": true

    Then restart Cursor.

  3. Run Network Diagnostics: Cursor Settings > Network > Run Diagnostics — share the results here if the issue persists after the steps above.

Also, if it happens again after trying these, could you grab a fresh Request ID? (Three dots menu in the top right of the chat > Copy Request ID.) The one you shared didn’t have any backend data, which confirms the connection was blocked client-side.

I am also suffering from this “taking longer than expected“ “feature“ on macOS. Since there are so many reports in on this already, i will not send a specific id. sadly i did just upgrade my plan, just to run into this, feels bad, when you are working on a nice sideproject but cursor does not fulfill my requirements.

im encounterng the same issue after the update - cursor is now totaly unusable

The same thing started a few hours ago. At first, I thought it was blocks in Russia, but with a VPN the situation is the same.

Hello everyone !

I’m experiencing the same issue : Cursor is basically unusable.

  • Ask mode works fine
  • Plan mode starts correctly (planning, reading files)
  • But when it switches to execution, it gets stuck on “Taking longer than expected” and never completes

It seems ilke the model can explore the codebase, but fails at the execution step.

What I tried (no success):

  • Switching HTTP modes (1.0 / 1.1 / 2.0)
  • Re-indexing / deleting index
  • Reinstalling Cursor
  • Diagnostics → all checked
  • No VPN

After 2h of no answer, it worked briefly (~40 min), then broke again.
