Table rendering in the AI pane is broken, or just horrible ux - there's no wrapping, agent creates long tables that you have to scroll back and forth to be able to read

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Table rendering in the AI pane is broken, or just horrible ux - there’s no wrapping, agent creates long tables that you have to scroll back and forth to be able to read. Rows render in single lines no matter the amount of content instead of wrapping cells and fitting the tables within the actual AI pane.

Steps to Reproduce

Chat with AI (Auto mode for me at the moment) and if the response happens to include a table, chances are it’ll be a nightmare to read it.

Expected Behavior

Table cells should wrap the text instead of having it all one a single line

For AI issues: which model did you use?

Currently using Auto, unsure whether happens with other models

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, thanks for the report.

This is a known issue. Tables in chat don’t wrap text inside cells and instead expand horizontally. This has been reported before Table rendering broken, and the team is aware.

As a workaround, you can ask the model to output the info as a list instead of a table, or split wide tables into a few smaller ones.

Let me know if you have any questions.
