Persistent Anthropic Connection Errors for 3+ Days

Bug Reports
1

For the past 3 days, I’ve been consistently receiving connection errors when trying to reach Anthropic services through Cursor. The error message states “Unable to reach anthropic” followed by “No completion was generated after max retries” with a request ID.

Operating system and Cursor version:

  • Cursor Version: 0.46.11
  • VSCode Version: 1.96.2
  • OS: macOS Sequoia 15.3.1 (Darwin arm64 24.3.0)
  • Device: Mac mini (2024) with Apple M4 chip, 16GB RAM

Additional information:

  • The issue has persisted for 3 days despite multiple attempts
  • I’ve tried the “Try again” button but receive the same error
  • My internet connection is stable and other web services work normally
  • I’ve restarted both Cursor and my computer multiple times

yep same here - work is tedious on cursor last few days with anthropic models - seriously like 5 to 6 retries before it finally works.

its very likely an issue with region, as not all regions are affected. We are having no such issues at all, while others have it frequenlty.

I have servers in different regions and everywhere there is the same problem. Now I have tried 5 times and it doesn’t work at all

Edit: started working after a few application restarts.

I’m just getting “Connection failed” If the problem persists, please check your internet connection or VPN. Can’t get any work done. (Probably the universe telling me to stop vibing for tonight)

I also encountered the same problem, and when I took out my own API key, the issue was resolved… :unamused_face:

anthropic error

Im having this issue and cannot seem to get past it. Anthropic server status looks fine so I am assuming its on the Cursor side

I am in Europe, maybe it is a problem with the users in Europe?
