Copy message doesn't copy the entire message

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

“Copy Message” doesn’t copy the whole LLM message.

Probably linked to the “tool call” inside?

I couldn’t get the text with Markdown

Steps to Reproduce

Here I used a skill that has an instruction of tracking progress with a todo list:

Copy this checklist and track progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Gather the diff
...
- [ ] Step 5: Produce the refactor plan

And asking in the chat to use the skill, gave the result on the image.
We see that if checked the last todo between 2 messages.

Expected Behavior

Copy the whole answer(s) of the LLM after the message, with Markdown formatting

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. Looks like this is a bug. When copying a message, the text doesn’t get combined across tool call boundaries, so only part of the message content is probably being captured.

As a temporary workaround, you can manually select and copy the text from the chat.
