After opening the Agents window for the first time, selecting a repo, and sending a prompt, my entire local chat history disappeared from “Show Chat History.” in the original IDE view.
Only cloud chats are still visible - all local ones are gone.
Steps to Reproduce
Open the Agents window for the first time
Select a repo and send a prompt
Open “Show Chat History” — local chats are no longer listed Lose all your chats
Expected Behavior
Not to lose your chats
Screenshots / Screen Recordings
Notice how I can see my open chat [BUIL-4973] [Sentry] despite it not being listed in the history chat dropdown!!
Hi @Andy9822 Thanks for the post. The behavior you’re seeing is our new model picker, which groups models by family rather than individual reasoning level. So if you enable Opus 4.7 in settings, then you can hover over the model picker in the prompt box and choose various reasoning levels and context sizes, like so:
hey @Andy9822 , chat are normally saved inside a state.vscdb file, on darwin, you can find it on Cursor/User/globalStorage/state.vscdb, tho i’m not sure of the exact path on darwin os. As your chat are missing, you will probably see 2 instance of it, pick the bigger one as it will be the one with all your chat, and yeah, I would also tell you to try to search how other people resolved that in darwin because i am not familiar with it, but at least you have something to start working from! hope the issue resolve
I’ve toggled the Agents sidebar and got the same incomplete list of chats as in the history dropdown: only Cloud chats (and local chats from AFTER the bug/loss from trying out the Windows Agent last week);
Reloading in developer mode also didn’t fix it
The chat file does exist, and has 6GB - which I believe is the real full history:
[11:14:44] ➜ convertkit git:(main) ✗ la /Users/andyruizgarramones/Library/"Application Support"/Cursor/User/globalStorage/state.vscdb
-rw-r--r--@ 1 andyruizgarramones staff 6,0G 18 Mai 11:11
So, in short: I think trying out Windows Agent somehow corrupted something or set some filter and I only see Cloud chats before that “cutoff”.
