Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?
Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
Sometimes I’ll be watching an agent do its work and I’ll begin reviewing the files it’s changing while it’s working, so I’ll open up the “[N] Files” dropdown at the bottom of the editor AI pane. It will show, for example, one file, that I’ll then click on to see the edits it’s made (I generally prefer this full-context view to the summarized/diff view, a weakness of the Agent Window IMO).
But then, while I have the N Files dropdown expanded, it will say that there are more files available (e.g. I opened it at “1 File” and now it will say “6 Files”), but none of those files are shown in the dropdown. I have to close and re-open the dropdown to get them to appear.
It’s not a big bug, but it consistently bugs me, and feels like a bug.
Steps to Reproduce
- Kick off an agent task from the AI Pane (not Agent Window)
- Let the “1 File” dropdown at the bottom populate with a single file
- Expand the pane
- Let another file get touched so that it says “[N+X] Files”
- Notice that these extra files are not present in the list of modified files
Expected Behavior
The new files that have been touched should be populating that list automatically without having to collapse and expand the list again
