Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hi there!

I can see that you’ve successfully made agent requests since posting — could you confirm that everything is working again on your end?

For future reference, it’s worth running through our Network Diagnostics guide, which can often pinpoint the exact cause of issues like this.

No, the issue still persists. It’s still unusable.

Does the problem persist if you open a new chat?
