Bug with terminal and Shift + Skip command

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Good evening everyone. I’ve encountered a critical problem that makes the cursor almost useless. The issue is that whenever the agent interrupts the terminal, or when I click the Shift+Skip button, the letter “c” gets printed into the terminal. This automatically breaks any following commands the cursor tries to run automatically. For example, “cargo” becomes “ccargo”, and so on.

Steps to Reproduce

whenever the agent interrupts the terminal, or when I click the Shift+Skip button, the letter “c” gets printed into the terminal

Expected Behavior

This automatically breaks any following commands the cursor tries to run

Operating System

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Hey, thanks for the report. I think this happens because of the Ctrl + C command, which interrupts the command. Could you let me know which shell you are using?

Thanks for the reply. I just installed Windows, before that I was using Linux. On Windows I haven’t installed any additional terminals, the terminal that gets launched is the one Cursor uses by default for its scripts.
