When I try to copy and paste debug terminal output, the agent can no longer see it

When I launch my code in debug mode, I would previously copy any errors or log entries from the python debug console output into the cursor chat window, and just type a ? and hit enter. The output was shown in the context as ‘lines 565-654’ or whatever it was.

This always worked in the past. Cursor would see the issues and suggest fixes. Now Cursor simply says it doesn’t see anything. no matter what I do. If I paste the same info as an image it works, but this is not practical for a lot of output.

Its frustrating, because this just stopped working. There is no option to right click and paste as text. When I paste the chat window insists on embedding it as lines in the context, then simply cannot see it. I also tried adding the python debug console in context. No change.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated…

Amazing! Cursor have now specifically added a feature where if you paste debug terminal output and hit enter, it says Using terminal selections and goes to work. Thankyou Cursor team that is perfect!
