It’s an openai API Key in a .env file also in gitignore. The composer in Cursor said it can see it in my message, mentioning an “<open_file> tags”. I have no idea what it is about and how to prevent it. Thanks for tips and support.

Hey, It’s possible the Composer can see the file if you have it open, either as the focused or a background tab. If it is in your .gitignore, you can be sure it is not in you codebase index, and is therefore not stored or referenced anywhere off your device. I believe we are looking at some improv…

Cursor can see my API Key but how?
