Context selection is not good enough

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

Context selection is not good enough and it is an important way to improve vibe coding precision and reduce token burn, the file search is bad, i can’t filter the list to be only folder in the given path. i propose that we can add folder or file by entering full path or relativ path it should be able to take that in account and fitler only file that match the path (fuzzyli if possible).

Hey, thanks for this feedback. Context selection is a top priority for and it’s essential to how Cursor works, so we’re always working to improve it.

One important tip - you can type @ in chat, you can reference specific files and folders by path. That allows you to specifically point the model at particular files that are important to.

Another important thing to consider is that it’s always a good idea to start new chats whenever possible - this will keep your context window and token usage as lean as possible.
