Endlessly Generating

Thanks for reporting a bug you have found in Cursor!
Please add the following info to help us diagnose your issue:

:white_check_mark: Check the forum to ensure the issue hasn’t been reported already
There are several discussion topics but this is a BUG report.

:lady_beetle: Provide a clear description of the bug

  • Using Composer (Now named Chat) in Agent mode, a CLI TOOL call (mv file) failed. (sadly the exact message was hidden/removed by the IDE, but it started with “Tool call ended…” even it worked.)
  • After manually verifying the files were moved the AI was instructed to continue with the task.
  • It is stuck on “Generating”.

:arrows_counterclockwise: Explain how to reproduce the bug (if known)

  • Steps above are listed. This happens also in new chat after 3 short messages.
  • Switching the model e.g. to gpt-4o or others non Anthropic, does not help.

:camera: Attach screenshots or recordings (e.g., .jpg, .png, .mp4).
N/A

:computer: Tell us your operating system and your Cursor version (e.g., Windows, 0.x.x).
MacOS Cursor O.46.4

:no_entry_sign: Tell us if the issue stops you from using Cursor.
Its a deal breaker. using Agent does not work.

Hey, thanks for the report, we’ll look into it.

cursor is stuck on generating endlessly post update for me. Its still able to create new python scripts and read scripts but I have a lengthy python script I created with cursor 3.5 pre update and it cannot create the changes I am asking of it. I’ve tried 3.5, 3.7 and 3.7 thinking.

I am also experiencing this issue.

  • Switching model does not help.

  • Starting a new chat helps temporarily, as in - Chat starts to answer my question then after 5 seconds or so i get the endless “generating…” loop.

is it showing a notification like has a typescript and other notification like that?

If yes you need to delete your settings.json for you to be able to solve it
