Cursor not saving files after edits

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I am seeing a really weird bug the last few weeks where the Agent works on files, but the files are not being saved, creating a disconnect between what the model see and what is being compiled. I have to save the files manually which is causing serious development issues. And it works sometimes and sometimes not. I just starts not saving the files suddenly, and I don’t always realise.

Steps to Reproduce

Using Cursor in Agent mode editing files

Expected Behavior

Files saved after edits.

Operating System

Windows 10/11
MacOS
Linux
