Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, this is a known bug in v2.5.24+. When the agent changes multiple files or functions, only the first diff shows up in the editor. The rest are applied silently. The Review panel has the same limitation, unfortunately.

It’s tracked in the main thread here: Only some diffs are shown when agent makes changes.

For now, the best workaround is to run git diff after each agent run to see everything that actually changed, and use Restore to Checkpoint if you need to revert.

Does Cursor’s team have any plan to fix this? I saw same report which is created last month.

I suggested Steps to Reproduce, perhaps Cursor’s Team may take a time to look at this. It’s very inconvenience that i have no idea what Cursor Agent do with my code.

This bug is very inconvenient indeed. I hope Cursor team takes a little time to fix this since some of us don’t trust blindly what an agent do with our files and want to have more control with the coding flow

I need this fix ASAP, I would appreciate it if you could spend more time on this, this is soooo essential for our workflow!

Solve the problem guy, just open the Agent setting, search for Inline Diffs and then enable it.
