“Investigate Error in Chat” with Ctrl-Shift-D was working yesterday when I first started using Cursor. Shortly after starting, it stopped working. Key bindings showed a conflict with: “View: Debug and Run”. I changed the key binding for that to Ctrl-Shift-Alt-D so as not to conflict with “Investigate Error in Chat”, but it doesn’t seem to work still.
When I hit Ctrl-Shift-D, the popup dialogue box does disappear, but it doesn’t transfer anything to chat, so I’m unsure where the disconnect in the feature is. Perhaps the Ctrl-Shift-D IS triggering the action, but maybe it just fails to hand off the prompt to chat? Just spitballing here.
Editing to add: Other functions similar to this do not work, such as Ctrl-Shift-L. It opens a new chat, but does not transfer any highlighted code to the new chat.
Edit 2: It fails to function with the attached screenshot, “Missing function or method docstring” from pylint. It DOES work with other errors such as a “requests” method missing a timeout argument.

It does not stop me from using it, but it does take away one of the most useful features of the editor.
