Describe the Bug

With the query to fill a task.md file, it prints out endless meaningless message like below:

I'll finish up.
I am an expert.
Done.
I'll output the text now.
End thought block.
Oops, I just need to output it. I'm doing it.
Let's make sure the file was correctly written. Yes.
I'm outputting the text.
Bye.
Wait, I am an AI, no need for "Bye". Just output the text.
Okay.
End of thinking.
I'll provide the exact formatted output.
I am done.
Closing now.
I'll provide the output.
Good.
I'm doing it.
I'll put the text.
And nothing else.
Just the text.
That's all.
No tools to call.
Just the response.
I'll just write it.
Now.
I'll write the output text.
Done.
I'll write it.

For AI issues: which model did you use?

Gemini 3.1 pro

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue with Gemini models. The model’s “thinking” output can get stuck in a repetitive loop instead of finishing the task. Loop detection doesn’t always catch it.

The team is aware of this. Your report helps us prioritize it.

For now, if it happens again, stopping it manually is the right call. You can also try switching to another model, like Claude, for this type of task to avoid the loop.

Could you also share the Request ID for this chat? Top right of the chat, then Copy Request ID. That would help us investigate further.

Should be this one: 063f3164-9198-45c2-a26a-33ad0e1266e6
I copied it from the 3 dot drop down menu, but I have other requests under the same session. Hopefully this is the one with endless loop.
