Plan mode is not working properly

Support Bug Reports
1

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I think the issue is that when the plan is accepted and it starts to run it, it doesn’t show the option to accept the edit, so it stays in an infinite loop.

Steps to Reproduce

Ask for a plan and click to build the plan

Expected Behavior

The update should happen without entering in this infinite loop where nothing happens

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

For AI issues: which model did you use?

Google Gemini 3 Pro

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report. The missing Accept button in Plan mode after clicking Build is a known UI issue that the team is investigating.

Similar reports: Agent Stuck waiting for Acceptance but button itself is not visible to click to accept

Meanwhile, try:

  • Cmd+Shift+P > “Developer: Reload Window” - restart Cursor
  • Try a different model instead of Google Gemini 3 Pro (Claude 4.5 Sonnet or GPT-5 often work more stable in Plan mode)
  • Use Normal or Agent mode instead of Plan as a temporary solution
  • Check if the Accept button is hidden beyond the visible area - try scrolling the Composer window

To help investigate:

  1. Does this happen with every plan or only with specific requests?
  2. Can you get Request ID? (Chat menu > Copy Request ID)

I’ll pass this to the team for investigation.

Just tried with Sonnet 4.5 and the same issue happened.
Doing the “Developer: Reload Window” workaround works to show the button “Accept”, but tried to click and it stopped the script execution, so the problem is still there.
Tried to scroll to find the Accept button and couldn’t find it.

It’s unfortunate because Plan mode is crucial for me.
