get_conversation

Extract full details of a Cursor conversation, including messages, code blocks, file references, title, and AI summary. Use conversation IDs for retrieval and optimize context with summary-only mode.

Instructions

Retrieves the complete content of a specific Cursor conversation including all messages, code blocks, file references, title, and AI summary. WORKFLOW TIP: Use conversation IDs from list_conversations, search_conversations, or analytics breakdowns (files/languages arrays contain conversation IDs). Use summaryOnly=true to get enhanced summary data without full message content when you need to conserve context.
