Description:
The ESP-IDF monitor command worked perfectly in Cursor version 1.6.45 but now fails with TTY error after updating to newer version.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Use Cursor integrated terminal (PowerShell)
  2. Run: cmd /c "C:\Espressif\frameworks\esp-idf-v5.5.1\export.bat && idf.py -p COM5 monitor"
  3. Error: "Monitor requires standard input to be attached to TTY"

Expected Behavior:
Command should work as it did in version 1.6.45

Actual Behavior:
TTY error prevents monitor from starting

Environment:

  • OS: Windows 10.0.26100
  • Cursor: [current version] (was working in 1.6.45)
  • ESP-IDF: v5.5.1
  • Terminal: Integrated PowerShell

Workaround:
Using external terminal (PowerShell/CMD) works fine

Impact:
High - breaks embedded development workflow that previously worked
