Cursor trying to apply changes multiple times that are applied and fails

Describe the Bug

I am using claude-4-sonnet-thinking model on remote-ssh and it tries to apply the same changes multiple times even though the changes are successfully applied but it keeps retrying it where sometimes it deletes the original file and creates a new one.

This is too much frustrating and wastes too much time and function calls.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Ask cursor to write a file for you.
  • It will ask for review and Apply changes
  • Apply changes
  • Cursor will still retry to apply until it confirms it after multiple retries

Expected Behavior

it should apply the changes once but if it fails to apply changes it should confirm if the changes are applied before retrying
