Hey, thanks for the report. Is this happening in a new chat? Could you also share the request ID? To do that, you’ll need to turn off Privacy Mode.

Sorry for the late update, I was able to solve it by accepting the suggestion. The issue was related to opening cursor on a symlink, which resulted in all files inside the workspace to appear outside it to cursor, hence requiring an extra confirmation for each edit.
