The AI-powered code editor

Cursor

This is an issues-only repo for Cursor, an editor made for programming with AI.

Creating new tickets for bugs or feature requests is much appreciated 🙂 Feel free to react to the ones you'd like us to prioritize. Our goal is to make Cursor work great for you, and your feedback is super helpful.

Getting Started

Head over to our website to download and try out the editor.

Features

It's early days, but right now Cursor can help you with a few things...

• Chat: Talk with a bot that understands your entire code base
• Edit: Ask the AI to change a block of code, see an inline diff of the edits
• Debug: Hover over linter errors or stack traces to auto-fix them

See here for more info on Cursor's features.

Roadmap

Long term, our plan is to build Cursor into the world's most productive development environment. Using LLMs, we want to do things like:

• "Heal" your repository when you're halfway through a refactor
• Allow you to code by editing a "pseudocode" version of your codebase
• Auto-fix errors as soon as they show up in your terminal
• Embed AI-written documentation into the UI

OSS

We'd previously open-sourced our old Codemirror-based editor. You can find that code here.

The VSCodium-based version of Cursor is not open-sourced, but we may open up parts or all of it in the future. Our prompting library is open source.

cursor's Issues

The editor slider

The editor slider is not available .I'm using win10

chromeos / linux does not recognize the download ( mimetype ) can not open

other os / linux Fetches the following:

https://app.posthog.com/e/?compression=gzip-js&ip=1&_=1679007759221&ver=1.50.8

but has no idea as to MIME type .,
So, what is it? is middleware req'd to unzip it ?

i tried 2X renaming the dld's filetyp to dwn.zip and dwn.gzip and neither of those worked.

Chromebook ( chromeos ) has no idea how to handle the object downloaded

Ability to see references / navigate to the definitions

It would be nice to check references of a function/variable and navigate to the definition, ideally by holding Command and clicking on it.

ipynb file viewer

Should be able to open up Jupyter notebooks like in vscode

Don't select a file to open

Don't select a file to open, and cannot drag files into software to open

`cursor .` command line hook

You should be able to open Cursor with a command line alias like cursor path/to/folder

Light theme

About code privacy

The tool is amazing! I am wondering what data does it collect? Thanks! 😃

Export chat records as Markdown

It would be great if the chat records can be exported as Markdown for future reference. Also, it would be great if one can access history chat records, if one decides to start a new chat.

right-click --> open containing folder

Scroll past last line in the file

Add whitespace below last line

Some language servers cannot be installed on windows

I tried to install all the language servers on windows platform client. And I found that there are 4 of them cannot be installed.

Depending on the log and errors, the C language server failed to install because of the wrong download url, since the clangd.zip downloaded by the client is only 1kb and I found the text "Not found" is in there, the url for it in the log is "https://github.com/clangd/clangd/releases/download/undefined/clangd-windows-undefined.zip" which is wrong.

And the C# language server's failing is due to the wrong command line, I can see the error in the log says that "Error occurred in handler for 'installLS': Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, chmod 'C:\Users\Heroman\AppData\Local\Programs\Cursor\resources\lsp\csharp\OmniSharp'".

The other two lsps are php and typescript, and I can only see the installing in the log and I cannot find out why they are not installed.

Would you consider developing an extension for VSCode?

Nice idea, but very immature as an editor, hoping to use it as an extension in VSCode.

Chatbot stops streaming tokens when the chat is a bit long

but the chat is not that long though as you can see from the scroll bar size on the right

Close tabs with middle mouse click

Provide a terminal inside the IDE

I keep switching back and forth between the terminal and Cursor. Would be nice to have an integrated terminal in the IDE directly

Syntax highlight for restructtext(.rst) files

Did you will support Matlab m language generator?

Chat history is buggy if you click on it when something is currently generating

Automatically continue when the length limit is hit for diffs

Copilot Sign-in not working

For some reason, the copilot login flow isn't initialized when starting up the application

Preview of markdown / images

It would be nice to have render/preview of images and markdown files

Chat Conversations are Stale when code changes are made

data security

will my data be used for training the gpt-4 model?
will my code be safe?

Add a tutorial?

详细的使用教程啥时候出

history for prompts

Thanks for the awesome IDE.

Could you please add a history for prompts to facilitate quick modification of previous prompts?

Thanks a lot!

Unable to resize sidebar in cursor

Description

I am facing an issue with the Cursor IDE where I am unable to resize the sidebar. This is causing problems when there is a lot of hierarchy in the project, as the file names are not clearly visible due to the narrow sidebar. This makes it difficult for me to navigate through the project and find the files I need to work on.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open the Cursor IDE.
2. Open a project with a lot of hierarchy (e.g. a Java project).
3. Attempt to resize the sidebar by dragging the border between the sidebar and the main window.

Expected result

The sidebar should resize to allow for better visibility of file names.

Actual result

The sidebar does not resize, and the file names remain narrow and difficult to read.

Environment

• Operating system: macOS Monterey v12.6.3
• Cursor IDE version: latest version, not sure about the version number.

Additional information: This issue occurs consistently on my machine, and I have not been able to find a workaround. I would greatly appreciate it if this issue could be addressed in a future update to the Cursor IDE.

Use WebContainers to make a Web-based version

Relatively underused browser feature that can run a sandboxed Node.js-based app without the need for pre-existing installation of Node.js or any other executables, all needed resources are either already in the browser or sent by the web server, and npm packages downloaded on the fly. Would (hopefully) enable a simple way to move to the web and not require a download to use or try.

Support auto-import and automatic removal of unused packages

• Automatic indexing of possible imports in the installed packages for the project and auto-import at the top of the file
• Removal of unused packages on Save

the remote folder by specific port

Hi.
I cannot access the remote folder by specific port, eg. ssh -i {mypemfile} root@{ip} -p 25785. I can login the machine in terminal.

搭载m1芯片的mac电脑比较卡，能出个适配m1版本的app吗

Language server support for svelte

Button to resize chat box

Sometimes the chatbot describes the entire function and give code examples, I need this in full screen to be able to read properly.

Support intellij key bindings

Integrated Terminal

Cursor should have a built-in terminal

File display box

The file display box cannot be resized in width

Accept entire code block generated by Copilot

I noticed that I need to keep pressing tab for every line of the code block generated by Copilot if I give the instruction using a new line with //.

Instead, when using Command + K the code block is pasted entirely in the IDE.

Support the sidebar to display historical conversation records

Is there a plan to support the sidebar to display historical conversation records? sometimes I want to look back at the records.

这玩意真的是用GPT4？？

Allow flexibility in `Cmd + P` search

The search for files with Command + P is not very flexible. For example, if I am looking for the file src/app/routes/subscriptions/index.js, I might type index subscriptions to find it but Cursor won't. To do a fuzzy search I use fuse which is great.

VSCode extension for Cursor

I'm not sure about the long term plan for Cursor as an IDE, but currently it lacks a lot of functionality that I use in VSCode. It might make sense for it to be an extension for VSCode rather than a whole new IDE.

Support workspaces with multiple repositories

It would be nice to have a workspace config file where you can have multiple repositories open in the same editor window

Multiple Windows

Cursor should support multiple open projects

Hard to select and copy a specific code range in chat

Button to close all tabs

Discoverable on right clicking a tab

Fix ordering of results when searching in files

I noticed when searching for something in files that the order of the files changes every time I press return.

一次只能新建一到两个文件，然后按菜单新建时，软件没有任何响应了。只能退出重新运行才行

What's the difference between cursor and copilot?

Hi! Thx for your impressive work! I was wondering what's the difference between cursor and copilot? Mainly about the features and functions, thx in advance xD
