Waiting for extension host (MacOS)

I see the symlink moved the issue. Waiting for extension host is gone, but now you’re getting No first token received. That’s progress, the extension host is loading now.

A couple things to try:

  1. After creating the symlink, do a Reload Window: Cmd+Shift+P > Developer: Reload Window. This isn’t the same as restarting Cursor.

  2. Try turning off Codebase Indexing: Cursor Settings (not VS Code settings) > Indexing & Docs > turn off Codebase Indexing. Another user with the same bug fixed it with symlink plus turning off indexing: Cursor Extension Host crashes repeatedly && cursor-socket extension is malformed

  3. If No first token received still happens, run Cursor Settings (not VS Code settings) > Network > Run Diagnostics and paste the result here.

Let me know how it goes.
