Cursor shows repeated <div class="preset-dot micro">x</div> lines unexpectedly in file view

Bug Report: Auto-apply AI Agent Creates Excessive
Lines in Cursor

Describe the Bug

When using the auto-apply AI agent in Cursor, it inserts excessive and repetitive lines of:

<div class="preset-dot micro">x</div>

This occurs at the bottom of the file, along with a diff banner displaying “Accept file” / “Reject file” options.
The result is unhelpful, cluttered content that appears to stem from faulty auto-apply logic rather than the model’s core capability.


Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any HTML (or similar) file in Cursor.
  2. Ask the AI a question related to the file, such as:
    “Can you add a metering system in this section?”
  3. Let the AI generate and auto-apply its suggestion.
  4. Observe the changes in the file — excessive repetitive content is inserted:
<div class="preset-dot micro">x</div>
