r/cursor on Reddit: Cursor: format on save (auto prettier) not working after update?
January 17, 2026 -
In Cursor, “format on save” (auto prettier) isn’t working for me.
It was working fine until yesterday, but after updating the Cursor editor, it seems to have stopped.
What’s weird is that in VS Code, it works perfectly on the same project/settings.
Is anyone else experiencing this, or is it just me?

Python format on save broken - Bug Reports - Cursor - Community Forum
September 16, 2024 - Currently it seems that the editor is not updating after formatOnSave: true for python files when using Black. This works fine in VS code. The file is saved, but the editor is not updated with the formatted file. So next time you try to save it says the files are out of sync and doesn’t save.

Ok guys I solved it by using this wonderful plugin https://github.com/lukas-reineke/lsp-format.nvim . Apparently it had something to do with setting up my autosave from null-ls but can't be sure. Anyways, solved.
