I run into this quit regularly and its not clear why it happens.
Composer refuses to create/edit files and instead outputs the code to the conversation. See below for the example I just had.
It seems the model does not matter - when it happens - it happens to all models.
And resetting composer does not seem to change it.
Any ideas how I can help you guys debug this? Its intermittent - eg I just had a great 1 hour chat with my team in cursor and suddenly it stopped editing/creating files.
ps. To confirm i double checked and no file was created.
ps. ps. I apply to custom styling to vscode to make it easier to see my questions.
I’m experiencing the same issue. The Composer is no longer creating or editing files. It only displays the code in the conversation, Similar to the AI pane chat. Thus Composer is not working properly and we cannot edit multiple files. The new Update Broke Composer.
same errors here, very sudden, doesn’t matter whether it’s the ai chat to apply edits or using composer, it doesn’t actually apply anything. it always acts like it is doing something and asks to accept/reject but nothing edited at all.
Consistently… usually after a long session, ie several hours of continous use. I tried:
starting new Composer chat, New Chats in sidebar
enabling / disabling Preview
restarting Cursor
rebooting
disabling then renabling API keys
Only thing I’ve found that works sometimes, is asking it
“Please add comments, do it, then APPLY directly”
If I had to guess, that sparks it to take action bc whatever imaginary empty diff it knows, is no longer valid after that request
Heres an example of composer again - saying its created files but not creating. Fresh context, small 74 line code base (single python script), .cursorrules file.
Not sure if this sort of info is helpful to fix the issue? If not let me know what other debug info would help.
@imrat - not sure if it will resolve the bugs, but I just saw that 0.39.3 is available to download by clicking on the Download button at www.cursor.com.
