Turn one vague report into a Tab repro

Identify a missing suggestion as a Tab failure, run the documented first checks and write a reproducible report.

Step 1 of 2

Keep the original complaint as the ticket title if it helps, but diagnose the observed behavior. Ghost text that never appears is a Tab symptom. Cursor's Tab help page starts with the Hobby allowance, HTTP compatibility, the current version and internet access. The Tab status indicator can also disable chosen file types. Conflicting extensions may affect Tab or Inline Edit. If those checks do not explain the failure, record the file type and exact typing sequence beside the version, operating system and a screenshot.
