Feature request for product/service
Cursor IDE
Describe the request
When I chat with AI about code in the Cursor app, a single message often contains large code blocks. Right now, Reply can only attach to the whole message, so I can’t precisely reply to a specific code block, or a few lines inside it, to continue the discussion.
Pain points:
- If one reply contains multiple code blocks and I want to follow up on just one of them, I have to describe it like “the second code block above,” which is easy to mismatch.
- After replying, the context gets long, and it’s hard to jump back to the exact code we were discussing. This is related to the reading anchor problem.
- For casual chat, the current coarse Reply is fine (like in Grok Bot or normal conversations). For coding, I really need a finer way to “talk to this piece of code.”
What I’d like:
- Support replying to a code block inside a message, ideally even selecting specific lines inside the block
- After replying, clearly show which code snippet is being quoted
- Ideally, add a one-click way to jump back to that code anchor
This would make follow-up questions during pair programming more accurate, with less back-and-forth to confirm context. Thanks.
