I can't stop Agent any more - command rejection

[SvenMeyer]

Cursor : 0.48.1
OS : Manjaro Linux
Mode: Agent / Auto

Example : Agent might suggest to push code to github which does not work as I can not enter the password for github (and actually, should not) into the the chat field.

I click “Cancel” at the bottom of its message and it continues … “I apologize for the command rejection. Let me …” and moves on doing other stuff it has not been as asked for !

I click “Stop” … and again Agent moves on doing / suggesting other stuff.

If I click “Cancel” or “Stop” I just want Agent to NOT DO ANYTHING , unless I have rephrased my request or wrote how to move on.

I think this is just happeing since 0.48.0

After I posted on the forum, I saw that other users have written about that problems also before. He noticed that problem already with Version: 0.47.8

Agent doesn't recognise rejections when user initiated

When I reject a command, the Agent thinks something went wrong and tries it again and, when that fails, suggests alternatives. e.g: I see that the git commands are being rejected. This might be due to security restrictions. In this case, I’ll provide you with the commands that you can run manually When I reject a command, I want Cursor to know it was me and ask me why.

This post might be a solution, but I think this should come as a default.

I created an AMAZING MODE called "RIPER-5 Mode" Fixes Claude 3.7 Drastically!

This has fixed just about EVERY SINGLE problem for me with Claude 3.7 in Cursor - It has turned my development into a CRACKED BEAST - I code about 12 hours a day, and I work on about 2 different Cursor windows at a time on extremely complex workflows/code and this specific MODE I have fine tuned with trial and error and this is the best - How to use: Just paste this in your RULES or save it as a text file in your cursor and when you start any project simple drag it in: COPY THE EXACT TEXT BELL…

Hi Sven, thanks for that. Looks interesting but…

I find the Agent starts to ignore global rules. I got mad at it for not following DRY principles, so it suggested I remind it when I ask it to do something. I pointed out that it was already in the global rules!

You can disable Auto run mode in Cursor settings or add the command you dont want it to execute to the deny list. this should stop it from executing automatically.

Cursor – Tools

If it still happens, you may need to share more what settings you have.

[SvenMeyer]

I do not even have “Auto run mode” enabled and other than that just the default setting it came with after install

Interesting. So does it automatically execute git push? or what happens

[SvenMeyer]

No, as I tried to describe.

• AI asks me to confirm to execute “git push”
• I know that it will not work (and I do not want my password in the chat window)
• I click [Reject]
• Then Ai goes on as described : " Sorry for that you had to rejct, let me do … <random code changes/suggestions which it wants to run> , instead of just stopping.
