Describe the Bug

Cursor TODO feature gets stuck in infinite loop when executing step-by-step tasks. The AI agent repeatedly executes the same step or continuously generates duplicate TODO items without progressing to completion. This happens particularly when using prompts that request TODO checklists with progress tracking.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Cursor and start a new chat
  2. Ask AI to perform a multi-step task with explicit TODO format request
    Example prompt: “請先列出 TODO 清單，完成每項後打勾標記”
  3. AI generates TODO checklist format like:
    • Step 1
    • Step 2
    • Step 3
  4. AI begins executing but gets stuck repeating the same step
  5. Loop continues indefinitely until manually stopped

Expected Behavior

AI should:

  1. Generate a clear TODO checklist
  2. Execute each step sequentially
  3. Mark completed steps with :white_check_mark:
  4. Progress through all steps without repetition
  5. Complete the task and stop execution naturally

Operating System

Windows 10/11
