Describe the Bug

Increasing false positives for indentation mismatches.

No Idea, it happens sometimes, the recent one was around a try catch block where a toast was right below an if case inside the catch block.

Expected Behavior

Never complain about indentation issues as I rely on prettier to always have indentation solved.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known model accuracy limitation. BugBot is instructed to ignore style and formatting feedback, but in the PR review flow the style category is not filtered strictly, and the model sometimes still slips through with indentation or whitespace comments.

The most reliable workaround right now is to add custom instructions in .cursor/BUGBOT.md at the repo root. Bug detection will follow them. Example:

# BugBot rules

-  Do NOT report indentation, whitespace, or formatting issues. Prettier handles all formatting in this repo.
-  Skip any finding that a linter or formatter would catch.
-  Only report logic, correctness, security, or runtime bugs.

After you push the file, BugBot will apply these rules to new PRs.

I also logged your report as a signal to the team that indentation false positives are getting through the filter in the PR flow. I can’t give an ETA for a prompt-level fix.

Let me know if BUGBOT.md helped in your case.
