Cascade > The tools (write_to_file and edit_file) are not working correctly

DOS commands can see and modify files, but the windsurf can't

The cascade keep saying files exist when they don't

Looking at the tool descriptions:

CopyInsert

write_to_file: "NEVER use this tool to modify or overwrite existing files. Always first confirm that TargetFile does not exist before calling this tool."

edit_file: "Use this tool to edit an existing file."

The core issue seems to be:

The cascade are getting confused about file existence

They think files exist when DOS shows they don't

This suggests a caching or file system synchronization issue

I keep getting the error still for the last few days, ever since I went Pro. Now today, it is just stopping with no errors. i was concerned because of the issues, that I had used up my credits, but I still have some. I am not sure what is going on.

None of the prompt is getting executed, after few seconds it shows "There was an issue automatically applying this code action. Here is the proposed change."

and then another message with "ErrorCascade has encountered an internal error in this step."

unable to create any report since last Thursday

have texted on the other help section but not getting addressed anywhere

showing poor response compared to free version

still happening now

Yup same error here... happens all the time. I even have to disable GPT / Claude Sonnet so I am stuck with Cascade basic for it to actually edit files... Please fix this so also the edit tool works with both Claude Sonnet & GPT.

Happened to me when I was using Claude for 2 hrs, maybe there are limits that we are just not told about... I switched to GTP 4o and it continued working normally.

Same problem here.

I'm the same

I am having this issue with Claude 3.5 Sonnet Model too. I have Also observed that the model becomes confused more frequently
