Missing the old "⌘ + Enter" keybind to use the codebase

Hi, I wonder where the old key combination went to use the whole codebase? I always use @codebase as an alternative now but it doesn’t seem to search for the files somehow and it feels like the responses have gotten very bad.

You used to be able to use ⌘ + Enter to search for the entire codebase and you also got a display showing which files were found. Does this feature still exist or has it been completely removed? @codebase doesn’t seem to work for me because it doesn’t find a single file that I haven’t specified manually.

Hey, yes, that feature was removed. @codebase should work as intended. Is your codebase indexed? Try deleting and re-indexing it. Also, try starting a new chat if you haven’t done so already.

Hey, thanks i will try to delete and re-index the codebase.

One thing I noticed with 0.47 is that it seems like they’ve changed the behavior the “Ask” feature for models which are “agent-capable”. Those models do codebase grepping rather than the rag-based Q/A behavior. If you’re using sonnet for example, the behavior has changed.

You could either revert to cursor 0.46(I’m considering this myself) or change the model to one that isn’t agent-capable. r1 has worked very well for me. You’ll have to type @Codebase though. I’m very sad that the cmd+enter shortcut was removed.

The agentic features introduced in 0.47 are cool for demos, but don’t actually work very well in practice, at least for me.
