Sound familiar?

Your connection, or their outage?

What you notice says a lot about which side the problem is on. Kilobat checks both sides and says which.

  1. Only Cursor CLI fails; everything else loads

    An outage at Cursor, or something on the path to it only: DNS, a VPN or proxy, a blocked host.

    Why can’t it connect? checks every layer to Cursor CLI, then Cursor’s status page. If the page reports an outage and nothing on your side failed, it says “Cursor CLI is down for everyone, not you”. Free

  2. Cursor CLI fails on this network, but works on mobile data

    This network: an office, school, hotel or country rule, or its DNS.

    Kilobat compares this network’s DNS with one encrypted lookup and tests the secure connection, then says “looks blocked on this network, not down”, with what it measured. Free

  3. Everything is slow, Cursor CLI included

    Your own line: Wi-Fi, the router, your provider or DNS. Not Cursor CLI.

    Router and internet latency side by side show whether your own line is slow. Pro names the failing link, Wi-Fi, router, internet or DNS, with a fix. Free Pro

  4. Requests to Cursor CLI keep failing in the background

    An outage at Cursor, while your line is fine.

    One notification per incident, such as “Claude Code: Anthropic reports an outage — not your connection”, and the MCP tool service_status for agents. Free

  5. Cursor’s status page is green, but Cursor CLI still fails

    The path from your Mac to Cursor CLI: DNS, a VPN or proxy, IPv6, or the server’s answer.

    “Cursor CLI’s status page reports no problems”, then the layer that broke and what to try next. Free

Six links between you and Cursor CLI.

Cursor CLI loads only if every step works. A status page covers the last one; Kilobat checks the five before it too.

  1. Your MacA VPN, proxy or app in the way
  2. Wi-FiSignal, noise and band
  3. RouterLatency and loss to it
  4. ProviderLatency and loss beyond it
  5. DNSWhether Cursor CLI resolves, and how fast
  6. Cursor CLICursor’s status page, read live

Why can’t it connect? Free

One check, both sides.

Name Cursor CLI and Kilobat checks your Wi-Fi, DNS, VPN and proxy, the connection and the server’s answer, then asks Cursor’s status page. When the page reports an outage and nothing on your side failed, the verdict leads with it. When your Mac is the problem, it says so first.

Terminal
# Is it them? Cursor’s status page
$ kilobat down cursor-cli
Free
  1. Network
  2. VPN · Gotham VPN
  3. DNS · 28 ms
  4. Night Drive’s own proxy

The app’s proxy isn’t answering.

Why can’t it connect? Kilobat tests the request and path the app itself uses, its own proxy, IPv6 and tunnels included, and names the layer that broke.

Questions

Is Cursor CLI down right now?

The official answer is Cursor’s status page, status.cursor.com, which Cursor’s team updates. The card at the top of this page reads it live in your browser and repeats only what it says.

Why does Cursor CLI work for other people but not for me?

When Cursor’s status page reports no problems, the cause is usually on your side or on the way: your Wi-Fi or router, your provider, DNS, a VPN or proxy, or a network that blocks it. Try mobile data: if Cursor CLI works there, your network is the problem. Kilobat checks each of these and names the one that failed.

What does Kilobat check for Cursor CLI?

Connections from the cursor-agent process, matched to Cursor’s status page, counting only its component CLI. It checks your own line first, then asks the page.

Will Kilobat tell me when Cursor CLI has an outage?

Yes. When Cursor CLI keeps failing to connect while your own line is fine, and Cursor’s status page reports trouble, you get one notification per incident. Turn it off in Settings.

Does Cursor’s status page cover all of Cursor CLI?

status.cursor.com forwards to the feed of Cursor’s page, hosted on status.x.ai. Kilobat counts only its CLI component.

Does it send anything about me?

No. It sends a plain request to the status page, with no cookies and nothing about you, your network or your apps. Read the privacy notice.

Is it free?

Yes: the status checks, the notifications and Why can’t it connect? are free. Kilobat Pro, $29 once, adds findings with a fix for your own network, possible causes of call freezes and history.
