[bug] can't get tests to run

[csells]

I've got a POD (Plain Ol' Dart) project with unit tests and I can't get them to run.

It appears that the Dart MCP server does not recognize /Users/csells/Code/dartantic_ai as a registered project root. This usually means the Dart MCP server either isn't running, isn't connected, or the project hasn't been registered with it.

To proceed, you need to:

1. Ensure the Dart MCP server is running.
2. Connect to the Dart Tooling Daemon (DTD) for your project.
3. Register your project root with the MCP server if needed.

Would you like step-by-step instructions to connect the Dart MCP server to your project, or do you already have the DTD URI to provide?

The Dart MCP server is already connected, but it still does not recognize /Users/csells/Code/dartantic_ai as a registered project root. This means the project root must be registered with the Dart Tooling Daemon before you can run tests through MCP.

Next steps:

• Please confirm if /Users/csells/Code/dartantic_ai is the correct project root.
• If so, you may need to register or open the project in your Dart/Flutter IDE (such as VS Code or IntelliJ) with Dart MCP integration enabled, or provide the correct root URI if it is different.

Would you like instructions on how to register your project root with the Dart MCP server, or do you want to try a different root path?

You need to pass --force-roots-fallback to the mcp server in order for cursor to work (it claims to support roots but doesn't)
