Agent Mode keeps asking approval for changes

The Agent on every code changes asking “accepts” or skip after the latest update. Maybe there is a setting I missed. But, I am wondering how do I make the agent just work like usual. (without asking permission to approve changes before going to the next file to edit)

Same here — the problem appeared for me around two hours ago as well.

This is super frustrating/time consuming having to double approve everything :frowning:

Seems like something tool call related is broken maybe part of the same thing, agent executing commands not working properly

I suspect this is the cause of the issue:

We made this change for all models in our harness.Cursor

Switching off external file edit protection fixed this for me for the short term (Edit: Cursor Settings>Agents tab)

I’m testing this, it looks like it helps for some files (I would love to get deeper control of this through rules in .mdc)

same issue here (win11 –> wsl2)

Could anyone share request IDs where you are seeing this?

Same issue here, been using Cursor all day without issue and now having to accept every file change and it won’t run things like unit tests as it can’t see terminal output: Terminal still isn't working — same issue: exit code -1 and no output.

Reuqest ID (I think): 1505fb84-9830-4623-8e20-3737806ec516

Disabling external file protection doesn’t help me

Same issue here. This is driving me crazy for more than an hour now..

Auto-apply edits is gone.

Yep, once again another update and now I am being asked every single time to accept as well. Every time and I mean every time, there is a update a new issue… Can we please get a LTS that is solid
