Common failure patterns and how to diagnose them

Provider details

AI-native code editor/IDE with tab completion, chat, agents, and model routing. Based on a VS Code fork; routes workloads to Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google models.

What we monitor
Cursor IDE — Core IDE features
Cursor CLI — CLI interface
Cloud Agents — Background agent tasks
Marketplace — Extension marketplace
Bugbot — Bug detection bot
Automations — Automation features
cursor.com — Website and authentication

Model families
Anthropic (Claude Sonnet / Opus)OpenAI (GPT / o-series)Google (Gemini)Cursor proprietary/specialized internal model(s)User can bring their own API keys
Common limits & quotas
  • Hobby: limited agent requests + limited tab completions
  • Pro: $20/mo — expanded usage
  • Pro+: $60/mo — higher usage
  • Ultra: $200/mo — top-tier individual
  • Teams: $40/user/mo — centralized billing, org controls
  • Enterprise: custom — SSO, policy controls, SLAs
Ecosystem dependencies
Built on: VS Code (fork) — VS Code Marketplace issues can affect extension installsRoutes to: Anthropic API, OpenAI API, Google Gemini API — upstream outages cascadeAuth: Cursor's own auth system, independent of GitHub
Operator notes
  • Cursor's status page decomposes surfaces well: IDE, CLI, Cloud Agents, Marketplace, Bugbot, Automations, cursor.com can fail independently
  • Upstream cascades are common: when Claude API has incidents, Cursor's Claude-routed Chat degrades. Model picker swap is the first workaround.
  • The Cursor forum (forum.cursor.com) often surfaces issues minutes before the status page updates
  • Cursor auth is independent of GitHub — a GitHub outage doesn't break Cursor sign-in
Diagnostic signals
$ Check status.cursor.com per-component (IDE, CLI, Cloud Agents, Marketplace, Bugbot, Automations, cursor.com)$ In IDE: Cmd+Shift+P → Developer: Reload Window to clear extension state$ Test model switching: Chat panel → model picker dropdown$ For Cloud Agents: cancel current task, verify new task creation in status page

Fallback alternatives

What to use if this service is down

One upstream model is degraded (Claude/GPT/Gemini)
Switch model inside Cursor before leaving the IDE
Easy switch
Cursor IDE globally unavailable
Windsurf or VS Code + Copilot can reduce downtime for active sessions
Easy switch
Tab completions unavailable but Chat works
Use Chat for inline suggestions manually
Easy switch
Cloud Agents unavailable
Claude Code CLI or Devin can reduce downtime for autonomous tasks
Moderate effort
Offline continuity
VS Code + Continue.dev + local Ollama
Zero dependency after setup
Major migration

How we monitor

downforai.com probes each AI service every 2–5 minutes from multiple independent locations. We measure HTTP response codes, latency (p50 & p95), and endpoint availability across the surfaces listed above. Status is classified as Operational, Degraded, or Outage based on a weighted combination of probe results. Uptime is calculated over 30-minute buckets and the last 24 hours. User reports are factored into our diagnosis as a secondary signal. We are independent of all providers listed and receive no compensation to report any particular status.
