Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. We’ll investigate this.

I am seeing this issue again with the “Run Everything” not working anymore. Same thing for the “Allowlist”. Was there a recent change to this?

Hey, the team is working on a fix that will be released soon.

Any updates?

Please fix this ASAP… It’s a big problem.

Wen fix?!

The “allowlist not working with MCP calls”-issue has been hindering and cockblocking my cursor productivity for weeks now! Why dont you offer some global switch to turn that enforced broken sandboxing ■■■■ temporarily off unti its actually fixed?

Im using the latest patch release and there appears to still be no fix to make the ■■■■ MCP allowList and/or “Run everything” work on my mac.

Here is my version info:

Hey, the team is working on a fix that will be released soon.

While waiting for this official fix from Cursor, I made a script that impatient and frustrated Cursor users can run to resolve the issue themselves.

This hacky solution has been verified to work by at least 3 people.
