Gemini code assist in Cursor doesn't work in agent mode

Bug Reports
1

Describe the Bug

I am not sure if it’s deliberate, but as long as Gemini Code Assist works itself, their new agent mode doesn’t. Every time, it gives “There was a problem getting a response.” It works with VS Code, though.

Steps to Reproduce

Just try it in Cursor in agent mode

Expected Behavior

It should work?

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

1.3.9
And there is no Menu button in Cursor now at least I can’t find it

hi @Niko_Bellic and thank you for your bug report.

Please provide additional information so we can identify the cause of issues you see.

  • Which model are you using?
  • Do you have any API keys setup?
  • Did you configure MCPs and which?
  • Could you post a Request ID with privacy disabled so we can look into the details? Cursor – Getting a Request ID

You can find Cursor version details on Help > About.

Hi,

You can’t choose the model in Gemini Code Assist, I just installed the extension

No I don’t use API
No I don’t use MCP

I think it’s very easy to reproduce just install the extension and ask anything in agent mode. If it’s only me who has this problem I can make a Request but for now I really doubt though

Thank you as you see I found the Cursor version I just tried to say that the tip about it was outdated

Thank you for the clarification.

This sounds like an issue with the extension itself. We have so far not received similar reports, but it is possible that others experience the same issue.

Do you see any errors at Help > Toggle Developer Tools > Console, you can share them here.
