Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I have a user who was working in two chats at the same time. In agent mode, version 3.1.15.

1. In chat 1 they were working on work item 112967 and PR 122386

2. They opened a new chat 2 and typed in /load-task-memory we have a failed build in PR 122386 (for context, /load-task-memory is a skill we have for loading previously recorded memory files)

3. Before doing anything else in chat 2 (including activating the load-task-memory or doing any searching or lookups) the thinking mode thoughts revealed:

The user wants to:

1. Load task memory for work item 112967

2. Address a comment on PR 122380

3. Investigate a failed build in PR 122386
[more stuff]

So the user asked about PR 122386 in a chat, and the first thought of Cursor (opus-4.6-thinking) was to look up things for a work item and PR that was discussed a few minutes before IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CHAT.

Steps to Reproduce

I cannot reproduce it at will, but it has happened to a bunch of users in my company in the last week. The description above is representative.

Expected Behavior

Chats are completely independent and Cursor will not pull in context from one chat to the other without permission, or if it does, needs to make it clear
