Cursor Auto with Grok 4.6 High excels at coding but fails completion judgment

A user reported that Cursor Auto, powered by Grok 4.6 High, is proficient at generating code but struggles with accurately determining when a task is truly complete. Despite detailed specifications and passing tests, the AI repeatedly fixed superficial aspects of code reviews rather than addressing the underlying requirements. This led to a workflow where the AI would patch specific feedback, add a narrow test for that patch, and then declare the job done, even if broader criteria remained unmet. AI

IMPACT Highlights potential limitations in AI's ability to autonomously certify high-assurance implementations, suggesting a need for human oversight in complex coding tasks.
