Swift.org documents Cursor support as users report 2.6.13 instability — a reality check for AI IDE rollouts
Swift.org now shows how to use Cursor for Swift, while Cursor forum posts flag crashes and stuck chats in version 2.6.13. Swift’s official docs explain that Cursor, a VS Code fork, works with the Swift VS Code extension powered by SourceKit-LSP, covering completion, refactors, debugging, and SPM tasks. See the setup guide on [Swift.org](https://swift.org/documentation/articles/getting-started-with-cursor-swift.html). Recent community threads point to reliability issues: chats hang when referencing a file in the chat box, Cursor 2.6.13 crashes repeatedly, and an easy-to-misfire “Undo All” lacks confirmation. Bug reports: [stuck chat on file reference](https://forum.cursor.com/t/bug-why-have-i-been-having-this-problem-for-the-past-two-days-whenever-i-reference-a-file-in-the-cursor-chat-box-it-gets-stuck-thinking-forever-and-never-gives-a-response/154053), [2.6.13 crashes](https://forum.cursor.com/t/cursor-2-6-13-crashes-continuously/154043), and [Undo All hazard](https://forum.cursor.com/t/undo-all-in-multi-file-edits-is-too-easy-to-trigger-and-has-no-confirmation/154048). Commentary frames agentic IDEs as promising but still maturing, with mixed experiences across tools. For perspective, see this op-ed on the “awkward adolescence” of agentic coding on [WebProNews](https://www.webpronews.com/agentic-coding-navigating-the-awkward-adolescence-of-ai-development-tools/) and a member-only take on Cursor’s cloud agents on [Medium](https://medium.com/@sebuzdugan/cloud-agents-cursors-quiet-revolution-in-how-we-code-f411cda159fd).
