### Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

### Describe the Bug

1. All my chats prior to 2.0 are no longer accessible.
2. Some chats are being retitled in the middle of the chat, which is confusing  
2a. Some of those retitled chats are losing all their prior context/requests, i.e. can’t scroll up after the chat was retitled.
3. Files are suddenly opening with the “Save changes?” Windows prompt as if I tried to close the file without saving, which I didn’t. I think this usually happens immediately after accepting a cmd run.
4. First major LLM screw up in a long time, where an entire (very complex) page was wiped for no reason.
5. Changes in the codebase (usually CSS) are suddenly reverting back to prior versions without warning or reason. When I ask the LLM where the changes went, it says “You must have changed them, I’ll restore it.” I didn’t.

UPDATE: I am reverting back to 1.7 until I get word that 2.0 makes sense.
