Describe the Bug

The agent provides the correct solution on the chat panel; however, it sometimes doesn’t actually update the files implementing the solution. I tried explicitly prompting an update and restarting, and it sometimes helps and sometimes doesn’t. Clearing the history also seems to help.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Prompt some action
  2. The agent writes what needs to be done correclty.
  3. The agent doesn’t actually update the code sometimes.
  4. Prompting explicitly to change or restarting the IDE sometimes help and sometimes doesn’t

Hey, which model are you using? Does this also happen in a new chat? Also, could you share the request ID? First, you’ll need to disable privacy mode.
