Describe the Bug
As a part of a multi-step agent operation in Chat, Cursor is often starting commands and examining their output - which is fine, but for some reason after about 5 such commands, something happens, a terminal view is not opened, and the command output isn’t examined. See the screenshot for how it looks.
Steps to Reproduce
Start an agent operation in Chat that needs to execute more than 5 terminal commands
Expected Behavior
That Cursor works.
Screenshots / Screen Recordings
Note that there’s no “Starting terminal…” message or the actual terminal view. It just hangs at this step.

Additional Information
I think this used to work fine in previous version of Cursor.
The problem is indepentent of which model is used, including “auto”.
Does this stop you from using Cursor
Yes - Cursor is unusable
