### Where does the bug appear (feature/product)? Cursor IDE ### Describe the Bug If the agent (in the editor view) prompts you with a command and you change the command before approving it, the original command will be executed. ### Steps to Reproduce 1. Do something that makes Cursor want to run a command (i.e. ask it to execute tests) 2. Change the command it wants to run ### Expected Behavior The modified command should be used ### Screenshots / Screen Recordings ![Screenshot_20251210_153858.png](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/cursor1/original/3X/0/4/04e9e965a80fd0a411db3b4855c1e5f6110f2d15.png) ### Operating System Linux ### Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy) Version: 2.2.7 VSCode Version: 1.105.1 Commit: c7365150b3b3d35fd5f6504a5686fb9ea5eea3b0 Date: 2025-12-10T03:22:51.748Z Electron: 37.7.0 Chromium: 138.0.7204.251 Node.js: 22.20.0 V8: 13.8.258.32-electron.0 OS: Linux x64 6.12.48-1-MANJARO ### Additional Information In the screenshot you can see that the agent proposed “cargo test” and I changed it to “ls”, but it executed “cargo test” anyway ### Does this stop you from using Cursor No - Cursor works, but with this issue ---

Hey, thanks for the report. You’re on version 2.2.7, while the current version is 2.2.20. Could you update to the latest version (Help → Check for Updates) and see if the issue still reproduces? If the bug persists on 2.2.20, let me know - I’ll pass it to the dev team to fix. ---

Hi Dean, thanks for the response. I updated to the newest version and still faced the issue: Version: 2.2.20 VSCode Version: 1.105.1 Commit: b3573281c4775bfc6bba466bf6563d3d498d1070 Date: 2025-12-12T06:29:26.017Z Electron: 37.7.0 Chromium: 138.0.7204.251 Node.js: 22.20.0 V8: 13.8.258.32-electron.0 OS: Linux x64 6.12.48-1-MANJARO Below you can see a screenshot where I recreated it again, with a different command ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/cursor1/original/3X/c/2/c219665fabda68a6161350acd25dead755134894.png) ---

Hello, Any Updates? I have the same issue ![cursor cmd bug](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/cursor1/original/3X/1/c/1cf6cbf5681d9c07340afc609a1e96177c841b55.png) ---

No, I’m also still getting it, too. If it wants to run a command you don’t approve of your only choice is rejecting it. I am disappointed by just how little attention they seem to give defects, and by how often they break core functionality. ---

Hey @Kaleb_Bruwer, The issue where edits to terminal commands were ignored has been addressed in a recent Cursor update. Updating to the latest version should resolve this. Let me know if you’re still running into it! cc @Maksym_Komarov ---

Hey @mohitjain , Thanks for fixing! The terminal commands are uneditable now… The bug is solved, but it will be still convenient to have the edit feature
