### Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

### Describe the request

when i’m answering questions while in plan-mode, it would be neat to be able to click back to Answers and see the questions + answers. and there are definite situations where the question isn’t a multi-choice question, but i want to answer by selecting multiple selections.

### Operating System (if it applies)

MacOS

Hey, thanks for the feedback!

On your requests:

1. Viewing question and answer history  
This isn’t available right now. After you answer the questions, you can’t go back and see what you picked. Good request, I’ve noted it for the team.

2. Multiple selection  
Multi-select already exists, but only when the model detects the question as multi-choice. If the question is shown as a regular (a/b/c) one, you can’t pick multiple options. In those cases, you can type a custom answer in the text field. You can write something like “a and b” or give a longer answer.

Similar requests from other users:

- [Plan mode: answer with additional context](https://forum.cursor.com/t/plan-mode-answer-with-additional-context/144586)

I’ll pass this feedback to the team. If you have specific examples where this is especially annoying, please share them. It’ll help us prioritize.

Hi, while I can’t point to a specific query that resulted in this, to prove it exists, I can mention, that I have had situations where the questions themselves mention multiple choice possibility, but only one can be selected. so then when i return back to that question, and click on another topic, then two can be selected, if i then return back to that question, and click on yet another topic, then three can be selected. so sometimes i’m not allowed to do multiple choice answers, even though it is mentioned in the question.

if i come across it happening, i’ll send screenshots.
