I previously posted about this here, but since then a new update has changed Ctrl+L again… Now, hitting Ctrl+L Brings up my previous chat, and also uses the old context from that chat, meaning if i use ask mode on one file, then open another file and hit Ctrl+L , it will use the context from that old file to answer my question, which is highly unintuitive… It also sometimes opens in ask mode and sometimes in agent mode, which is also inconsistent and annoying.
What I want from cursor is that when I hit Ctrl+L,
- A new AI chat window is opened,
- The chat is blank, i.e my old chat is NOT loaded,
- The mode is in “ask” by default,
- It uses the actual file i have open as context, not the context from the previous chat session
This used to be how it worked; it was so simple and worked so well. Now using cursor is so inconsistent and tedious. If I manage to get this working again only for it to break because of a new update promoting your new agent mode, I can’t keep using cursor. Sorry.
Any tips on how to get this functionality back is appreciated! <3
