How can I set Cursor to use all open tabs as the context?

[stevedekorte]

It’s frustrating to have to keep adding the some files to the chat context. It would also be helpful to have an option to always use all project files for the context, when that’s not too large.

Hi @stevedekorte ,

For reference, related discussion is here:

Add open files to chat (cmd+L)

Hello, Lets say I have 5 files open and I do cmd+L for some AI chat. The AI has the context of the one file that I am working in but not the 4 others. I can add by @ mentioning, but is there a way I can do something like @open-files??

The Reference Open Editors feature has been added, but it’s playing up a bit at the moment.

Do you mean added to the backlog or added to Cursor? I can’t find that option anywhere. What do you mean by “playing up a bit”?

Seriously, I need this feature every day. I feel like it should be the default to have currently open files included in the context

Add open files to chat (cmd+L)

Mentioning all open editors is now possible with / and “Reference open editors” in both chat and Composer. One small issue: if there is text already present in the input field, pressing / does nothing

Large models have limited contextual memory

Giving it all to the AI will produce a lot of illusions…
