Is Cursor down right now?
No, it’s up.
Cursor appears to be up and running normally.
Over the last 7 days, Cursor has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~132 ms. According to Cursor's official status page, the most recent outage began 2026-08-27 19:31 UTC and lasted 7m (severity: down). It was reported as "Investigating service degradation — cursor.com and IDE".
Cursor is an AI-powered code editor built on VS Code, combining a familiar editing experience with inline completions, chat over your codebase, and agentic multi-file edits. Because the AI features run against Cursor's servers rather than locally, an outage usually shows up as completions timing out, Composer requests hanging, or chat returning an error while the editor itself keeps working normally.
