Hey, unfortunately, we are currently facing some issues with codebase indexing, which may cause the `Handshake Failed` error, and some degraded performance in the features that rely on it.

We hope to have those solved soon, but you can track the status of this on [status.cursor.com](http://status.cursor.com)

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause!
