Hello, I am just wondering how the chat history for ‘Composer Chats’ is handled: Are the chats somehow ‘linked’ to the file that was open when the Composer chat was initiated? Or are they saved in a general ‘Previous Composer Chats’ area? Or are they not saved at all? Thank You. PS - In the Co…

Curious about this too because once I lost the edits from the composer and was not able to recover them (of course it is easy to do them again though)

Same, very easy to loose the history and hard to revert a step

@shaoruu - i wonder what people think: Option A: Add ‘Composer Chats’ to the general ‘Chat History’ space Option B: Add ‘Composer Chats’ to a ‘Composer Chat History’ space Something else? Option A - Composer Chats in general Chat History [composer_chat_history_option_in_general_chat_history] …

FWIW, I would prefer Option A. I don’t think Composer and Chat should be a separate interface. I think they should both have the same basic interface, and, if anything, the user should just be able to choose whether they prefer a sidebar or a floating chat. I always prefer a sidebar, for example.

I would personally like to have a separate window for chat/composer.

The best would be for composer to be completely integrated into the existing chat, because I like to discuss a solution in the chat before implementing, and after we decide on the perfect solution, I could use composer to implement it instead of clicking apply on several files in the chat.

Woot - ‘Composer History’ feature added in 0.39.0! Thanks @shaoruu ! [composer_history] ‘Composer Control Panel’ feature also added: https://forum.cursor.com/t/feature-request-composer-layout-expansion/6607/3 @LionSR @tiagoefreitas

FYI @shaoruu I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, but in 0.39.0: I was having a Composer chat with GPT4o The chat wasn’t very long It started displaying that behaviour where it says it has suggested code changes but I cannot see any suggested code changes In order to try and stop this beh…

I’m not sure I understand the history functionality 100% but sometimes I find out the history will get saved for the same set of files to be processed. Is this is this a feature or a bug because I would naïvely think that all histories of the other composer moves will be saved.

Does 'Composer' retain 'Composer Chat' history?
