Describe the Bug

I started an app using vanilla js and after about 15 minutes it became unreliable so i asked Cursor to turn it into a NextJS project. It went up a directory and created a separate project that wasn’t currently opened in cursor. Its not supposed to do that… right?

Steps to Reproduce

I dont know how.

Expected Behavior

Any changes that Cursor makes should be within the currently opened directory

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

Version: 1.3.5 (user setup)

No - Cursor works, but with this issue
