Hey, this is a known bug - tracked in the main thread here: Only some diffs are shown when agent makes changes.

A fix has been worked on and should land in an upcoming update. In the meantime, you can use the Review panel (the “Review” button in the bottom-right of the chat) to see all changes, or check git diff after each agent run to catch what was auto-applied.

Some users have also had luck downgrading to v2.4 as a temporary workaround: cursor.com/download.

Let me know if this helps.
