This draws to mind the dialog that opens when you open a new project in Cursor (and VSCode too, I think), where the IDE asks the user if they trust the project they're opening. Is Cursor under the impression that this is sufficient security apparatus?
- shitter 2mo agoSince there are no approval dialogs, it sounds like that doesn't even come into play here. That is the "gate" (to use the AI parlance) that Microsoft places on code execution in workspaces, though, and I would expect Cursor to at minimum fix this to only execute git.exe in trusted workspaces.
- alansaber 2mo agoStartups historically are not the most security oriented
- hack1312 2mo agoCursor, being based on VSCode, does have the Workspace Trust feature. They ship it disabled. https://cursor.com/docs/agent/security#workspace-trust https://cursor.com/docs/agent/security#workspace-trust
- dclowd9901 2mo agoAh, guess I was conflating the two (they are quite similar after all). From their documentation (the link you posted): > For untrusted repos, use a basic text editor instead. Is that really our options here? How shitty.
