Pressing Ctrl+V once inserts the clipboard contents twice. This only happens in Cursor; the same clipboard paste inserts once in other apps (browser, Notepad, etc.), so it does not appear to be a hardware keyboard debounce issue.
Steps to Reproduce
Copy any text to the clipboard (Ctrl+C) from Cursor or another app.
Focus an input in Cursor (editor / chat / other text field).
Press Ctrl+V once.
Observe that the clipboard contents are inserted twice.
Expected Behavior
A single Ctrl+V should insert the clipboard contents exactly once.
Same Ctrl+V paste inserts the clipboard contents only once in other applications (e.g. Notepad, browsers). That makes a sticky/faulty keyboard unlikely.
Hey, thanks for the detailed report with the version and steps. This looks like a known issue on our side with double paste via the keyboard shortcut. To confirm it’s the same bug, can you clarify a couple things?
If you paste via right-click → Paste, does it paste once or twice?
Ctrl+Shift+V (paste as plain text), once or twice?
Where does it happen exactly, in the Agents chat window, in a normal code editor, or everywhere?
Is it 100% reproducible, or only sometimes?
Based on your description, it looks like the Ctrl+V handler is firing twice, not the clipboard itself. As a temporary workaround, you can paste via right-click → Paste if that pastes correctly.
This is a known bug and it’s being tracked. I can’t share a Windows fix timeline yet, but I’ll post an update in the thread once I have one.
