Feedback on chat-window code generation

Hi, I like that Cursor imported my settings from VSCode and how easy it is to generate with my entire (small) codebase as context.

Here is some feedback / my ideal workflow.

  • I want my IDE to skip polite speech and avoid first-person pronouns.
  • I feel like I’m doing a lot of looking around and clicking (see my recent bug report where the origin file is not recognized), which feels slower than VS Code. Granted I’m still learning.
  • My ideal: I press a shortcut, enter a codebase-wide prompt, then watch all in-place code generation across all files, then press 1 key to accept all changes.
  • Fever dream version: then my tests get run, cursor acts on test feedback automatically, and when my tests pass a commit is generated, and I’m prompted to accept or edit the commit
