Oh interesting, does it not make the folder a different color for you? Mine does on MacOS 27. Edit: oh yes the file versus folder

Cursor has two LLM interaction modes, chat and composer. The chat does what you described first and composer can create/edit/delete files directly. Have you checked which mode you're on? It should be a tab above your chat window.
It would be great if you could try out my phishing detection idea. Send an email to [email protected] and get it analyzed for phishing. So far it seems to work ok but looking for feedback.
