Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. I was able to reproduce the issue. If the prompt text already includes a literal @ character, like in @azure/ai-form-recognizer, then later @ mentions stop triggering the dropdown suggestions.

I’ve shared this with the team. As a workaround for now, you can try pasting the package name instead of typing it out, since you mentioned paste works, or type the @ mention first and then add the package name.

Let me know if you notice anything else related.
