Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

If you allow Agent to work through Subagents, only the changes made by the main Agent will be rolled back when you revert to the prompt checkpoint. The rest will need to be rolled back manually, for example, using git reset.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Give a task with the call of Subagents
  2. The Agent and Subagents have made changes
  3. Roll back to the checkpoint

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Hey, thanks for the report and the Request ID. It’s especially helpful that you included the related thread.

This is a known issue. Checkpoint revert doesn’t fully cover changes made by sub-agents right now. The team is aware, and your report helps us prioritize it.

For now, the workaround is what you’re already doing: run git reset to roll back sub-agent changes. We’ll post here if there are any updates.
