# Cursor prompts that keep agent sessions focused from first edit to final check

Cursor can make a small feature feel like a conversation: describe the change, watch files move, answer a question, and review the result. That workflow is useful until the task becomes larger than one edit. Then a vague prompt creates a vague session. The agent changes the right screen but misses the empty state, updates a handler without checking authorization, or stops after the code compiles while the feature still cannot be used.

The fix is not a longer paragraph full of implementation guesses. It is a prompt that gives the agent a bounded job, a definition of done, and a way to show its work.

Cursor’s CLI changelog makes this more important.
