"Continue and revert" has no effect

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

When I resend a previous chat message, the changes are not reverted regardless of whether I choose “Continue without reverting” or “Continue and revert”. It seems to have no effect.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Ask the agent to make some changes
  2. Edit and resend the message to ask for some other changes
  3. Choose “Continue and revert”
  4. The changes are not reverted

Operating System

MacOS

Hey, thanks for the report. Looks like a known issue in 2.2.x with checkpoint revert when resending messages. We’re already investigating this: see discussion here Revert Changes Broken with New Updates

To pass the case to engineers, please share:

  • Request ID of the problematic chat (chat menu top right → Copy Request ID)
  • Short video or screenshots
  • Does it reproduce in a new chat and in a small test project
  • Console logs: Help → Toggle Developer Tools → Console - copy errors

Temporary workarounds:

  • Cmd+Z to undo recent changes
  • Local History: right-click file → Open Timeline
  • Git commands to revert changes

Let me know once you have the Request ID and logs - we’ll speed up the investigation.
