"Keep" and "Accept" actual mean DELETE

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

When deletions are to be executed, Cursor asks for confirmation. But the confirmation texts are completely misleading: “Keep” or “Accept”. Accept would be tolerable, but then “Keep” is the exacto oposite of the action that is about to be performed.

Steps to Reproduce

Any task where deletions are performed, it will provide two buttons to execute: “Keep” and “Accept”.

Expected Behavior

If the agent is about to delete files, the buttons should reflect the action that’s about to be performed.

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, you’re partly right, but these two buttons don’t do the same thing. In the first case, you accept an action, like deleting a file. In the second case, the “keep” button saves all your previous changes made by the agent. However, if you press cmd + enter, both actions are executed. Thanks for this, we’ll think about how to improve it.
