Its how context windows work. Cursor optimizes it so you can use it cheap, but that also means it will forget things.
An alternative is using something that does not mess with the context window, but be prepared for burning big bucks. An euro per message isn’t that uncommon, so its easy to burn 50 bucks in matter of minutes.
Hey, you need to start a new chat as often as possible, ideally for each task.
@ViezeVingertjes really?
Thanks @deanrie I may have to try that.
Well, yes. But keeping it small or breakdown the task and do it in smaller steps works wonders with cursor. Refresh its memory before each one and it should stay on track.
