I've have a different version of the same thing. My pet peeve is that it constantly interprets questions as instructions.

For example, it does a bunch of stuff, and I look at it and I say, "Did we already decide to do [different approach]" And then it runs around and says, "Oh yeah," and then it does a thousand more steps and undoes does what it just did and gets itself into a tangle.

Meanwhile, I asked it a question. The proper response would be to answer the question. I just want to know the answer.

I had it right. That behavior into a core memory, and it seems to have improved for what it's worth.

Solved this by starting my prompt in ask mode in vscode and having it candidly plan changes so I can approve them. Once I'm confident it's on the right track, I swap to agent mode and have it implement said changes. Takes longer, but separating working tasks from conversations has been a better workflow overall

So, same concept for asking questions / discussing features. Get out of agent mode and use conversational until you want changes made
