Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, this is a known issue caused by a diff rendering bug. When diffs don’t render correctly, the Revert, Undo, and Save buttons can disappear too.

For now, the safest workaround is to make a git commit before each agent session. That way you can always roll back with git checkout -- . or git stash if the Revert button is missing.
