Chat review UI omits some Agent-edited files

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Agent edited 5 files (confirmed via git), but the chat review UI only showed 4. I missed a file and almost opened an incomplete PR. I now always check git status after Agent runs.

Cursor version - 3.13.21

Steps to Reproduce

Unfortunately, it’s difficult to reproduce the issue, so I don’t know what might be causing it. Sometimes the chat works correctly, and other times it doesn’t.

Expected Behavior

Every file the Agent changes appears in the chat review list.
Actual: Some edited files are written to disk but missing from the UI.

Screenshots / Screen Recordings

Operating System

MacOS

Version Information

Cursor version 3.13.10

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hi @SimonDucak Thanks for the forum post!

This is a known class of bugs. The list above the input box is built from the changes the review UI is currently tracking, not from a record of everything the agent wrote. When a file already carries a change you haven’t Kept or Undone from an earlier turn, a new edit to that file doesn’t always register as a separate tracked change, so it drops off the list. That’s also why it comes and goes. The edits themselves are always written to disk, so your habit of checking git status is the right call.

Workaround for now: before sending the next request, Keep or Undo any pending changes, or commit them and close the review. That way, no file carries an unreviewed change into the next turn.

Updating won’t help yet, since a fix hasn’t shipped. We’re tracking it internally, and I’ve added your report to the existing issue, though I can’t give you a firm ETA.
