Hey, this is a known issue. The backend is processing your requests successfully, but the responses aren’t showing up in the chat UI. Since you haven’t used Cursor in a while, your project index is probably out of date.

Try this first. It’s been the most effective fix:

  1. Reindex the project database: Cmd + Shift + J > Indexing & Docs > Reindex. Wait for it to finish, then start a new chat.

If that doesn’t help:

  1. Test in an empty folder: File > Open Folder > pick an empty directory, open a new chat, type “hello”. Does it respond?

  2. Disable HTTP/2: Add this to your settings.json (Cmd + Shift + P > Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)):

    "cursor.general.disableHttp2": true

    Restart Cursor after.

  3. Run network diagnostics: Cursor Settings > Network > Run Diagnostics. Share a screenshot if anything looks off.
