Describe the Bug
Recently, I have encountered the problem several times that I asked in the chat to create a new file, e.g., a new command, which should be based on an existing file. The model (in Auto Mode) then starts working, but seems to get stuck in a loop and constantly displays the error message Error calling tool 'edit_file' and then starts over again… and so on. I then have to stop the process and start it again from the beginning.
Steps to Reproduce
Seems to occur most times if I ask to build a new file “like” an other file before, e.g.: “Build a EnterAwardCategory command in the way of the @EnterAward command”

Does this stop you from using Cursor
No - Cursor works, but with this issue
