It’s been over half a year since I switched from VSCode to Cursor. Although Cursor is still slightly less stable compared to VSCode at times, I’ve generally been quite satisfied with it. However, after the agent feature update in early November, I ran into an issue where the Jupyter Notebook kernel stopped being recognized.
It turned out I wasn’t the only one experiencing this — there was a bug report on the Cursor Forum, and the suggested workaround was to reinstall an older version. I followed that for a while, but recently I stumbled upon a simple attempt that surprisingly resolved the issue. It was almost nothing… yet it worked.

Reinstalling the Jupyter extension fixed it (somehow)
For a moment, I genuinely considered switching back to VSCode, so I’m relieved that this resolved the issue. Since I haven’t tested this on other machines, I can’t say for sure that this will work for everyone.
Still, I’m sharing this in hopes that it helps someone else who’s been struggling with Jupyter kernel issues on Cursor.
