Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Normally on a mac Cmd+Left takes the cursor to line beginning. And Cmd+Right to line end.
But when Cursor IDE chat window has a reference in the chat input box the Cmd+Left takes the typing cursor to the text beginning at the top. I still would like the system behaviour to apply. Even if there are references in the chat box.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Select some lines in a file.
  2. Add them to new chat with Cmd+Shift+I.
  3. Type some multiline text.
  4. Hit Cmd+Left on a second line of text.

Expected Behavior

Typing cursor moves to the beginning of second line.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the detailed report with steps and a screenshot, it really helps.

I can reproduce this, so I’m confirming it as a bug. The issue is with how the chat input handles Cmd+Left and Cmd+Right when the input contains reference pills. It treats the shortcut as go to the start or end of the whole input, not the start or end of the current line like macOS expects. I’ve logged this internally as a separate issue.

I can’t share an ETA for a fix yet. If there’s an update, I’ll reply in the thread.
