I have been experiencing an issue 46.8 Claude 3.7. It seems that every time the agent gets to the point of generating code it just stops. I tried a new agent and same thing. restarted the app, same thing. It just stops, not timeout or the typical “Resume” or “Try Again”
I see that the file it was trying to update was aborted
Also my file changes with the agent usage fail to apply but randomly apply after the agent recognises the changes didnt apply causing two of the same edits into my codebase or something like that.
I may have found a workaround or the issue just cleared itself. After many failed attempts to solve the issue, this last attempt seemed to work without a new agent (saves a lot of time when you don’t lose context).
I changed my prompt from having it modify the code to creating a implementation plan document that describes what changes are needed to the code. Then I asked it to review the document and implement it. It worked! no Idea if it was really a workaround or not but I know others have experienced this issue.
I’ve found that instructing the tool to “do it in chunks to avoid timeouts” works well in most cases. This approach seems especially effective for smaller tasks, as each chunk seems to reset the timeout countdown out.
For more complex changes, I’ve noticed that using a “make a plan” strategy achieves a similar step-by-step effect. It breaks the process into natural segments, which can help manage complexity, but it does require more time and tokens.
In practice, for large projects I always ask the tool to create and update a plan as it implements changes. This way, I end up with a detailed record of all the code it generated. For shorter tasks, however, simply chunking the work has proven reliable.
I started noticing these issues with the new Claude 3.7 update and wonder if it might be contributing to the behavior. Has anyone else experienced this?
Yea been having this issue since last night through 2 different Cursor versions. This needs to be fixed ASAP! How is the main function of cursor broken?
I have the same problem. I am unable to use Cursor 0.46.8. for the last 3 day. Every model in agent mode gets stuck in Generating and then automatically stops. Please fix this @Cursor-Team. I have already Reported a Issue.
everyone is trying to use 3.7. that’s why I think I have this problem. right now I am using 3.5 and it works fine. but when I switch to 3.7 I have this problem too.
