Cursor doesn't apply to files anymore

Since 2 days my Cursor stopped to use my files appropriate…

If Cursor makes changes to files it doesn’t connect these files anymore in the chat. So I have to copy and paste the changes into the files manually…

Furthermore it keeps generating new Files with nearly same name like the original files with naming like “(Ausschnitt).rs”. “Ausschnitt” is German for cutout I think..

Its seems also since then the generated code quality got more worse, like Cursor has no clue anymore about my codebase.
But its all synced, and the behavior still exists till now..

What could this be? please help!

Windows: 10
Cursor: Latest

in Chat he says also, a file doesnt exist, but it does exist, i can add it with @ to the chat…

and it creates files with same names like existing files in root dir, instead of using the right file in the src dir…

Cursor is broken at all… it keeps getting worse with every update…

This may be related to Codebase indexing being down recently but Im not 100% certain.

Hey, first try deleting your codebase and re-indexing it, then restart Cursor and start a new chat. This should help.

i thought the same but it speaks against it that it still causes problems today and afterwards.

thanks, i will try it out, but im not happy with that solution. it seems all problems are fixed by deleting the chat history :face_with_crossed_out_eyes: :sob:

unfortunately it didn’t help…

he just doesn’t use my files anymore if I didn’t specify each file specifically.

asking for help on highlighted errors in lines are completely useless now since i cant add files on thsi feature, and he doesnt search by self…

for example Thinking of Cursor claude Sonnet 3.7:

It looks like the function get_trade_monitoring_events is missing. This function should be in the db.rs file since it's being used alongside other database functions. Let me check if the function exists in the db.rs file and if not, propose to create it.

The error message suggests that the function get_trade_monitoring_events is not defined or imported in the scope where it's being used. I need to add this function to the db.rs file and make sure it's properly exported.

then he creates the function with the same name as the existent one…

But the function is there… and this is just one example.. he just don’t look into files… it seems he know the files but don’t look into it

Even if I ask where to search… if a function exists, he then writes the function doesn’t exist, but then he changes the existing function completely…

idk what happened to cursor but, everything worked well till ~5 days ago… now its useless…
