I find that after the recent updated to Version: 0.49.0, it became really difficult to share environment variables with the Agent. I understand that privacy is a valid concern and that production variables should not be shared with third-parties.
However, when working with development APIs, it’s often very beneficial to let the agent make curl requests to help it understand the contract and data flow for debugging. While previously, I could simply tag @.env, now I have to copy and paste the environment variables outside of cursor (i.e. Apple notes) and then paste back into chat as plain text. When added directly, the AI can only see what variables exist but now their values.
I completely agree that this should be the default policy. However, I do not agree with this being the only policy.
Can we please get this as an explicit setting?
