Login successful, but AI features not working – session loop issue

Bug Reports
1

:white_check_mark: Issue Summary
I successfully logged into Cursor via the Log in to Cursor command. The browser shows the message:

“All set! Feel free to return to Cursor.”

However, all AI-related features remain completely disabled inside the Cursor app.

:lady_beetle: Bug Description

  • No :high_voltage: icon in the status bar
  • No autocomplete suggestions when typing (even const doesn’t trigger anything)
  • Cursor Tab stays grayed out (Enable button does nothing)
  • Cursor: Login command is available, and I successfully log in — but the app never recognizes it
  • Developer Console shows:
    ConnectError: [unauthenticated]
    and
    api2.cursor.sh/auth/poll?... → returns 404 repeatedly
  • Additionally, in https://cursor.com/settings, a new “Desktop App Session” is created every minute, indicating an endless login loop

:counterclockwise_arrows_button: Steps to Reproduce

  1. Fully uninstall Cursor (including ~/Library files)
  2. Download and install latest version (0.48.6)
  3. Launch Cursor and trigger Log in to Cursor
  4. Browser shows login success
  5. Return to Cursor app — AI features remain disabled
  6. Console shows unauthenticated + 404 errors
  7. New session appears every time the app is opened

:laptop: System Info

  • macOS 13
  • MacBook Air M1
  • Cursor version: 0.48.6

:prohibited: Impact
Yes, this issue completely blocks me from using Cursor’s GPT-based features.
I rely on autocomplete and Cursor Tab, so this is a critical blocker.

Please help me reset the session or resolve this backend issue.
Thank you!
