Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Hello!

No matter what I type in the chat, I get an error message:

Tool call arguments for read_file were invalid: Unexpected parameters provided: should_read_entire_file, start_line_one_indexed, end_line_one_indexed. Expected parameters: { target_file: string (required), offset?: number, limit?: number }
(Request ID: e6ff4d6e-2198-4aba-a9e6-eb0d6837ead4)

What can I do to make it work again?

Thank you very much for your help!

Does this stop you from using Cursor

Yes - Cursor is unusable

Does starting a new chat fix it? Have you tried an earlier version e.g. 1.5 Download · Cursor does it happen on an earlier version?

The solution can be so simple and straightforward… It worked with a new chat.
