Cursor told me I should learn coding instead of asking it to generate it


Hi all, Yesterday I installed Cursor and currently on Pro Trial. After coding a bit I found out that it can’t go through 750-800 lines of code and when asked why is that I get this message: Not sure if LLMs know what they are for (lol), but doesn’t matter as a much as a fact that I can’t go through 800 locs. Anyone had similar issue? It’s really limiting at this point and I got here after just 1h of vibe coding My operating system is MacOS Sequoia 15.3.1

It also seems you are not using the Chat window with the integrated ‘Agent’ which would create that file for you easier than in the ‘editor’ part of Cursor. If you tell AI to use for example Single Responsibility Principle as guideline when coding it will not mix different features in one file. Thanks for your advice the other day, my post got deleted for an unknown reason, but I decided to go ahead and purchase a one month cursor pro subscription as you advised, I didn’t experience any major problems with the new releases and I’m enjoying it.
