Cursor Agent loses context after login-required browser task
After a browser auth step, the agent restarts the plan and forgets completed progress.
The failure
What the user was trying to do
Collect pricing from a vendor dashboard that requires interactive login, then summarize differences by plan tier.
What happened instead
The agent revisits already-completed pages and loses the plan state after login.
How to reproduce it
1. Start a browser task that requires login halfway through. 2. Approve manual login. 3. Ask the agent to continue with the original extraction task. 4. Observe whether prior context remains intact.

Pick the simplest action first, then leave a short note if it adds useful context.
I could not reproduce this in a non-SSO flow. It may be specific to redirected login tabs.
