Hi! Please download Nim for VSCode directly from the their GitHub releases: https://github.com/nim-lang/vscode-nim/releases/download/v1.8.1/nimvscode-1.8.1.vsix

Then you can install it in Cursor via the command palette (cmd/ctrl-shift-p, Extensions: Install from VSIX):

In order for the extension to automatically show up in Cursor, we would need the maintainers to automatically submit to Open VSX – it looks like there’s an open issue for it: Publish Vscode-Nim on OpenVSX Β· Issue #40 Β· nim-lang/vscode-nim Β· GitHub
