Describe the Bug
Hey everyone,
I’ve updated cursor to the latest version and I’ve noticed a new extension got installed called Cursor Pyright.
Now, I get lots of errors in my python codebase. I don’t want to solve all of them right now. Is it ok to disable this extension?

Hi @david1542, thank you for this report. We have fixed this in version 1.0.6 of the Anysphere Python extension to provide defaults that are more similar to Pylance / VSCode. Could you try upgrading the extension?
@ravirahman thx for the response. I’ve tried to upgrade but I still get a lot of linting errors. I’ve disabled the Type checking mode for now
Other than the linting errors, I have a lot of problem with the debugger. Every time I try to run my Python services with my debugger run configuration, I get an error saying “The connection to the terminal’s pty host process is unresponsive, terminals may stop working. Click to manually restart the pty host”
these problems started happening when I tried to deactivate cursor’s Python extension (because of lots of linting errors).
I think I messed up something internally. Do you have any idea what can be wrong here?
Hi @david1542, thanks for flagging this issue. It looks like there was an issue in the build for the 1.0.6 version of the extension, which caused excessive linting errors with built-in types missing. We fixed this in version 1.0.7 of the extension; could you try upgrading?
