Command reference ยท Cursor CLI
/full-conversation
Turns off the performance-optimized short rendering and shows the full conversation history.
Long conversations are, by default, only partially redrawn (only recent turns), keeping resizes and resumes fast. /full-conversation turns this off and shows the full history again. Documented in the official changelog, not (yet) listed in the command reference table.
โ WHEN TO USE IT?
Scroll through the full conversation history of a very long session
/full-conversation โ on, to see older turns again
โ WHEN NOT TO?
Only working on recent turns, performance matters more
The full history makes resizes and resumes noticeably slower in long sessions.
Better: Leave /full-conversation off (default)
