Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?
Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
Responses chat messages into Cursor take forever (>1 min) to generate or never generate. Tool calls keep timing out.
Steps to Reproduce
- Open a directory
- Open up chat with Cmd + L and type in something like ‘explain this file’
- Hit enter
- The ellipses can be seen but no response is generated. Or it takes a long time for response generation to start.
Expected Behavior
In previous versions, you would see some output much earlier and tool calls would not time out.
