This is helpful, some clarity now how Cursor's Agent mode works under the hood. Also big plus for "LLM empathy". Going to try your approach for our own project.

Have you noticed the agent getting stuck in any particular spots when building more complex projects?

Yup, I definitely faced multiple loops or "blocked" scenarios when iterating on the prompt and tools. The most obvious one is when the Agent generates a terminal command that requires some interactivity (ex: "confirm to ..."). This causes the Agent to build all files from scratch adding a 5x more steps than necessary.

I'm planning to try to make terminal STDIO work as a "human in the loop" pattern or even better as an "Agent in the loop" one.
