0.42.3 creates new files instead of using existing ones (the worst bug since i joined cursor)

The 42 version is insanely buggy why does that create new files instead of using existing ones

And yes its creating new files also when im inside the firebase.js that i have created

Have you added the existing firebase file to the context of the chat?

It happends when i ask for new feature which requires new file, i cant create the file by my self cause the llm wants it in different place

example:

I have online_server folder with

  • online_server.jsx
  • online_server.css

Now i want to add list of servers (servers.js) inside the online_server folder but when creating it with llm he want the file to be inside config/servers.js so i cant apply it from the chat instead i have to copy it

I’ve had this too. I had snoop-action.ts which was working fine and it created snoops-action.ts

Same issue. Here is a super basic example. when hitting apply, it just creates a new file. Cant use cursor in any way with this bug. I tried re-indexing everything and remove prefs… nothing helped. This issue however, is local to this particular project. I tried a few other projects and everythign works fine.

Multiple people reporting same problem as @outlabsio in Apply code update from chat creates a new file - #19 by OldChili

It starts to annoy me even more look even when i click the file it opens the correct ones but the apply decides to create a new one like come on this bug is the worst one i had using cursor in the past months

Can we get a fix for that please im going insane dealing with this

it started happening to me too right now.
