just lost another 6 hours today because it worms itself into a hole it can’t get out of and then apologises when i keep catching it deleting crucial core code that it should not be touching
when will you increase context windows? it’s perfectly capable of coding it just loses context - would pay for a product that actually retains the context - is this a limit of the underlying llm or is this a cursor thing?
Hey, unfortunately, the models within Cursor are only as good as the context they are given. We’re not yet at the point where Cursor is a magic bullet, and can do anything you ask of it.
To improve the performance you are seeing, I’d recommend:
Routinely starting new Composer sessions to keep the context concise and on topic for what you are trying to do
Be precise about the files you @, to ensure the LLM doesn’t have too much infomation
Use Project Rules to enforce certain behaviours, like ensuring the LLM doesn’t edit unrelated code, or confirms the changes you want before it does them
