Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey @Steven_Duong!

Thanks for the report !

Can you confirm whether you’re hitting this in Cursor or in Grok Bot? Your report mentions both, so I want to make sure we’re looking in the right place:

The version you listed (0.29.0) is definitely a Grok Bot version, not a Cursor one.

For context on both fronts:

  • If this is Grok Bot: we shipped fixes for a set of Google auth issues on Friday, so it’s worth retrying and letting us know if you’re still blocked.
  • If this is Cursor: we have additional Google auth fixes landing in 3.19, so that should address it.

Either way, if you can share which product you’re on (and the exact version), we’ll get you sorted.
