Hey, unfortunately, it seems like the issue might be related to a large chat history in your project. Cursor isn’t the best place to store chats. If you need to keep your chat history, you can export it using this extension:

SpecStory - Visual Studio Marketplace

To resolve the issue itself, you can try renaming your project or moving it to a different location on your disk. This will break the link between the project and the chat history, allowing you to continue working.
