Hi there, I was encouraged by a friend to use Cursor, due to the touted whole codebase inference. Signed up this morning and gave it a try with a project. Unfortunately, I saw no difference, actually, less quality than simply GPT-4 with an uploaded codebase zip. ie, you can see from my chat trans…

Maybe you should check in MORE (in the right sidebar) that you codebase is properly indexed [image] Then you can prompt @codebase in the chat.

Checked now and was fully synced and codebase is fairly small, so assume it was when I tested earlier. Tried again with fresh chats, using variations: same prompt as before with @codebase with “Interpereter Mode (Beta)” enabled Same issues, with hallucinations / making assumptions about non-exis…

For me it works really well. It works better than ChatGPT because of the preprompt they use that are automatically generated. I would try flushing the index and redoing it or reinstalling Cursor. Are you using GPT4? But I’m sure someone from Cursor will help you in more details.

Was using GPT4 when encountered the issue. Are you explicitly getting responses including code from your vendor files, not already in GPT-4’s trained model? That is the crux of my issue and perhaps it’s due to this particular vendor’s files not being as popular or old as other ones in GPT-4’s learn…

(similar issues with VSCode’s @Workspace, so I simply think we’re not there yet with useful whole codebase/project integration with GPT-4 in any of these tools, if we were, they should probably be costing more in the amount of tokens they’d require to fine-tune/send enough data in prompting)

Sorry to hear Leon. I’ve refunded your charge. Kept your current plan active till Apr 8th too. As for the product, we do not yet automatically inject libraries into your prompt. You could use the @doc feature to achieve this by tagging the libraries you use. You could also add other documentatio…

Thanks @npour , The @docs looks like a promising feature, but unfortunately, even after feeding it this package’s online documentation and referencing it, it was using non-existant methods. What did help, though, was to remove the Python venv dir from my .gitignore and re-index in Cursor. This stop…

how is it possible that gpt4 reads all zip, where do you use zip uploads, in the chatgpt plus subscription? last time I used it, the thing forgets previous paragraphs of conversation rather quickly :sweat_smile: how come it analyzes codebase and libraries for you, which language do you work with? (m…

fine tuning a local model like DeepSeek coder or StarCoder2, seems like the next step to try, for those who can’t make the Cursor embeddings approach work well for their use case. the fine tuning will need a dataset but you can make an existing local model to go one by one through all functions and …
