Codebase not fully indexed – only .gitignore is included

Hello Cursor team,

I am experiencing an issue with codebase indexing in Cursor. When I resync my index, only the .gitignore file is included (the message says “Synced (1 files)”).

However, my project contains many more files and folders, and I would like everything (except for standard excluded directories like node_modules and vendor) to be indexed.

I have tried manually editing the embeddable_files.txt file, but when I resync, this file is automatically reset to only include .gitignore.

My .cursorignore file is empty, and my .gitignore only contains standard exclusions.

Is there a way to control which files Cursor indexes? Or is there a configuration file or setting that I can use to adjust this behavior?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards,
