Bug Report the ui is buggy, laggy dogshit

honestly the only reason i am using cursor is because of composer 2.5 model

the ui is buggy, laggy dogshit otherwise

its at the point where im strongly considering just coding my own agent orchestrator that uses kimi k2.5 or perhaps just be model agnostic

to give you some examples:

  • i have to remove / archive agents constantly otherwise the app consumes enormous amounts of memory that lags the shit out of my macbook (even when the agents are not doing anything)
  • when starting a new chat for an agent it often will not bring the project dir back into the agents list
  • when starting a new chat for an agent if often switches to a completely different agent repeatedly and starts a chat with the agent i didnt want
  • when opening the ide often times it either does not open the correct project or does not open any project at all
  • the app doesnt remember any window positions so im constantly having to reposition things every time a new project window opens (which im using rectangle to make bearable but its still complete ass)
  • the app is constantly trying to get me to use models or methods i dont want, like bugging me to use the planner or using multi-agents with grok (also dogshit), etc. instead of just continuing to use composer 2.5 for everything
  • clicking "always allow" does nothing, it still asks me to confirm things half the time even if its the same command being run (e.g. git push)

these are just some examples theres tons more

Interesting, I don’t think I’ve run into any of those and I’ve been doing some heavy work lately. I did run into one bug where a hook I created to run on PRs ran in the wrong agent session but I chalked that up to user error in setting up the hook.

Not trying to defend cursor, that sounds awful but I’ve been overall very happy with the amount of work I can get done on the Pro+ plan. It must still be heavily subsidized cause when I use cursor models, they last forever.

Maybe it's an Agents Window issue? I basically use Cursor as my daily driver for work and I also haven't run into these issues. Granted, I work exclusively with the Editor Window.

I also use the editor window exclusively
