Cursor fails to log into Kubernetes via Kubernetes extension

When using the Kubernetes extension with Cursor, I encounter the following error (see complete log below):

It seems Cursor is unable to properly install the required server files in the remote Kubernetes pod. This breaks the Kubernetes extension functionality.

Temporary Workaround:

  1. Manually establish an SSH connection to the pod (insecure and cumbersome).

  2. Use Cursor with SSH extension, because it can successfully install cursor-server to the remote pod: /root/.cursor-server/cli/servers/Stable-${commit_id}/server.

  3. Inside the remote pod, manually copy this installation to the default installation path used by Kubernetes extension (/root/.cursor-server/bin/${commit_id}/):

mkdir -p /root/.cursor-server/bin/${commit_id}
cp -R /root/.cursor-server/cli/servers/Stable-${commit_id}/server/* /root/.cursor-server/bin/${commit_id}/
  1. Switch back to the Kubernetes extension to attach Cursor to the remote pod.

Request:
Please add native support for the Kubernetes extension in Cursor to automate and simplify this process.

Below is the complete error log when directly using the Kubernetes extension with Cursor
