Hey @simkimsia, thanks for buying and reaching out.

I’m checking this problem (had 3 people with same issue) and will provide a fix if possible. Are you using the Mac or Windows version of Cursor?

If no fix can be applied you will get a refund.

I’ll keep you posted by the email you purchased with.
Thanks again and I’ll get back to you soon,

I can recommend SpecStory, the export is automatic and timely. Worked better than most manual or hacked solutions. the benefit is you can reference it then in another chat as file with @

There should be a way to automatically log all sessions to a logging folder.

I’d like to expand on this feature request with a focus on automated logging and time management.

Proposed Automated Solution

  1. Real-time Auto-logging
  • Instant save without manual intervention
  • Configurable save location
  • Minimal performance impact
  • Preserved formatting (especially code blocks)
  1. Time Management
  • Default UTC+8 timezone support
  • Project-specific timezone settings
  • Precise timestamps (millisecond level)
  • Multi-timezone display for global teams
  1. File Structure
    Default naming pattern:
    YYYY-MM-DD_HH-mm-ss_[ProjectName]_chat.md

Example content:

# Project: MyApp
Created: 2024-03-14 15:30:00 UTC+8

Question about implementation...

Here's the solution...

# Time References
- UTC: 2024-03-14 07:30:45.123
- Local: 2024-03-14 15:30:45.123
  1. Team Features
  • Easy sharing with team members
  • Multi-user annotations
  • Git integration
  • Cross-timezone collaboration

This would solve the main issues mentioned in this thread:

  • No more manual copying
  • Preserved formatting
  • Easy sharing
  • Accurate time tracking
  • Development workflow integration

Would love to see this implemented!
