Why is there sometimes no codebase in my composer

Hey, since you’re in agent mode, the agent already has access to your entire codebase, so there’s no need to specify it.

This problem is persistent and “mode” independent and is becoming really annoying. Cursor is unusable.

Edit, Ask, Agent, thinking, not thinking, you name it. There is no @codebase whatsoever.

I have the same issue - i was told by cursor team to use codebase now it is not there anymore - I’m ok with this of course if it is by default happening across all modes - can someone from cursor team confirm that is the case?

I am a poweruser of Composer (now Edit) and this is something I would use on almost every prompt.

Thanks

It is a mess every time something, anything originates from Microsoft.

I’ve forwarded this to our developers. I’ll update you if there’s any news.

I just asked claude to redesign a webpage and i gave it specifics and everything. And it’s saying. " I’d be happy to redesign your liked songs page to look more like Spotify’s. To do this effectively, I’ll need to see your current liked songs page code. Could you please provide:

  • The location of the liked songs page component (likely in the src/components or src/pages directory)

  • Any associated stylesheets or context providers that handle the liked songs functionality

Once you share those files, I can redesign it to match Spotify’s liked songs page:"

Any clarity on the reasoning for messing with the @codebase feature? Also any reason for the limited communication when changes are made to core features of the platform? The changelogs are insufficient. General communication with the user base is insufficient. nacent tech companies that take a position of hostility to their users don’t tend to last very long…

I just stumbled about the removed @codebase feature and after some tests i just downgraded to 0.47.9. There I can select the @codebase feature again and finally got some work done. Until the new Version of Cursor is more reliable, I will just stick with the latest 0.47 Build.
