The title of this story should be "Announcing the Beta release of ty". A lot of people have been waiting for the beta specifically.
I've been using Pyrefly and loving it compared to Pyright, but they recently shipped some updates with crash bugs that forced me to pin to a previous version, which is annoying. Unfortunately my first impression of ty isn't great either. Trying to install the ty extension on the current version of Cursor says "Can't install 'astral-sh.ty' extension because it is not compatible with the current version of Cursor (version 2.2.20, VSCode version 1.105.1)."
If there's anything else accompanying the error, do you mind filing an issue? I've been using the ty extension with Cursor for weeks and am having trouble reproducing right now.
That's the full error. It shows up in a dialog box when I press the install button. I'm on macOS, connected with the Anysphere Remote SSH extension to a Linux machine.
If I choose "install previous version" I am able to install the pre-release version from 12 hours ago without issue. Then on the extension page I get a button labeled "Switch to Release Version" and when I press it I get an error that says "Can't install release version of 'ty' extension because it has no release version." Filed a GitHub issue with these details.
In the meantime, the previous version appears to be working well! I like that it worked without any configuration. The Pyrefly extension needed a config tweak to work.
https://forum.cursor.com/t/newly-published-extensions-appear... suggests that there's some kind of delayed daily update for new VSCode extension versions to become available to Cursor? It seems likely that's what is happening here, since ty-vscode 0.0.2 was only published an hour or two ago.
(pyrefly maintainer here) If you haven't already, please file an issue for that crash on the [Pyrefly repo](https://github.com/facebook/pyrefly) as well :)
