My cursor agent completely stopped responding

Hey, which version of Cursor are you using and which model? Also, try starting a new chat, that should help.

Cursor Pro: Stuck at “Generating…” with no response

Since there’s no refund option anywhere on the official site, it feels like their mindset is: “We’ve already got this person’s money — now let’s focus on getting more new users to sign up and pay.
