Does this stop you from using Cursor

Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor

I’ve been using Playwriting MCP via a container (not from Cursor’s MCP directory) and it also works completely unreliably in 1.0. It rarely can do longer sequences of commands while in 0.5 it worked much more reliably.

Not sure why the MCP “reload” icons were removed.

There is no logging, nothing to see what the orange dot means. When I stop the MCP it goes red but then it’s stuck at orange until I reload the Cursor window, just to turn orange after a (very) few interactions with the MCP. Other MCPs work OK.

Even when the MCP status dot is red, I can see it making the first request in the server logs but then it’s stuck.

I am running into the same issue as well after updating to version 1.0
