Hey, thanks for the screenshot. This actually isn’t a Cloud Agent issue. The message “Waiting for extension host” means the IDE itself is stuck. It’s a known bug in v2.6.14 where the cursor-socket extension shipped with missing files.

This is already fixed in a newer version. Try Cursor > Check for Updates, and if that doesn’t work, download a fresh build from Cursor · Download.

Could you also share your Cursor version? Go to Help > About in the menu bar. I just want to confirm you’re on 2.6.14.

Let me know if updating fixes it.
