Additional Information

I was initially in 2.0 and MCPs were working without issues. I then updated to 2.3 to see if it solved other issues that I’m having with Cursor but not just that it didn’t, it made things worse.

So I came back to 2.0, since it was working ok with the functions that I needed, and now I’m finding out that MCPs stopped working.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor

I tried all troubleshooting for MCPs but issue remains

Restarting my computer solved this. You can terminate this report.
