Feature Request: Terminal Visibility

Feature Requests
1

The Agent should be able to see what is currently running in the terminal(s) in Cursor.

I cannot keep YOLO mode on because the Agent always gets stuck in a loop of starting the dev server, even though its already running in the terminal. It then encounters and error, starts inspecting ports, etc, etc.

I want the Agent to have some awareness of the currently running tasks in the Terminal so it can tell that I already have a dev server running. Even better if it can read the output of the currently running terminal task.

If reading the terminal directly is too hard, perhaps if the Agent can view a Run and Debug process or something native that exists for the purpose of running a dev server.

I agree the constant request to start the dev server is annoying.
I think I am going to try adding a rule for that for myself.

I added a rule to avoid this and isn’t the functionality you are requesting already there?

Thanks! I didn’t know about this. It doesn’t fully solve my problem, because I need to manually add the full terminal and dilute my context. It might help in some cases though!

I also experienced the problem with it running terminal commands, specifically starting new dev servers and never look at it why stalling code generation.
