I have Cursor and VS Code opened side-by-side. Each has the Black Formatter for python enabled to format on save. When I save in VS Code the file saves rather quickly, applying all recommended formatting changes w/ Black. When I save in Cursor the UI lags, the file does not save, and I get a toast…

Unable to save files when format-on-save enabled
