i roll back to cursor 3.3, and it works fine.
which wget && wget --version | head -n 1

/opt/homebrew/bin/wget

cursor update is very fast, but it has many bugs after very version udpated.

can you please to make the old version functions works fine before you released your update.

This should be resolved in newer versions of Cursor. I wasn’t able to reproduce this on the latest stable release (the shell environment now correctly picks up Homebrew paths for the legacy terminal tool).

Could you update to the latest version? You can trigger it via Help > Check for Updates or download from cursor.com. If the issue persists after updating, reply here and I’ll dig deeper.

In the meantime, if you need an immediate workaround on 3.4.20:

  • Launch Cursor from your terminal (cursor . in your project directory) — this ensures Cursor inherits your full PATH including /opt/homebrew/bin.
