Composer 2 Feedback

Hey, thanks for the detailed feedback on Composer 2.

@Aniganesh, on your points:

  • Plan mode: This is a known issue. The team knows Composer 2 can sometimes ignore plan mode and start editing files directly. For now, you can explicitly add to your request: “only plan, do not edit any files”.
  • Browser tool and MCP avoidance: As a workaround, you can add rules in cursor rules like “always use available MCP tools before asking the user for information” and “use browser tool to verify changes”. It’s not perfect, but it helps.
  • Overall quality: Composer 2 is being improved a lot right now. Feedback on specific cases with example requests and outputs helps a lot. If you have concrete examples of bad refactor results, please share them.

@flowmotion, we know about the subagents and Composer 2 issue. There’s a recent thread with a similar report: "Task" tool missing. Prevents sub-agent launch. Which Cursor version are you using? And which model do you set as the main one when subagents should launch?

Let me know if any of the workarounds help.
