get_conversation

Retrieve full details or enhanced summaries of Cursor conversations, including messages, code blocks, and file references. Use conversation IDs from related tools for targeted analysis and context conservation.

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.
