Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Sometimes, messages to the cursor agent don’t get through. The agent just does nothing. It doesn’t even start processing the messages. Please see the screen recording.

This happens pretty often, and in unpredictable ways. I have tried updating cursor, changing the LLM, etc.; nothing helped. I also don’t think I’m out of requests yet.

Steps to Reproduce

Just send request to Cursor agent.

Hey, you might be adding too much context. This can also happen if you have a large file open in Cursor, even if it’s not in the context. Try closing it or switch to another one. Also, if you have MCP servers enabled, try disabling some that aren’t needed right now.
