Agent multi-file review controls appear in the editor tab/breadcrumb area; I want the bottom “Undo / Keep” style back (or a setting to choose)

Hi Cursor team and community,

What I’m seeing
When Agent applies changes across multiple files, the per-file review bar (file counter, Undo File, Keep File) shows up at the top of the editor, next to the breadcrumbs / tab row.

Previously I was used to reviewing with the controls closer to the bottom of the editor (the floating Undo / Keep shortcuts, or the same mental “workflow zone” as before). After a layout/UI update, the top placement feels awkward and easy to miss.

What I expected
Either:

  • The review actions back in the lower part of the editor as in older builds, or

  • A setting to pin review controls to top vs bottom (or follow “Editor” vs “Agent” layout consistently).

What I tried

  • Switching the title-bar style toggle between Agent and Editor — in Agent layout the issue is more noticeable; in Editor layout behavior improves for me in some cases, but the top breadcrumb strip for multi-file review can still appear, which is not what I want.

  • Adjusting generic workbench settings (e.g. panel location) — does not move this specific review strip.

  • I also found that some settings.json keys suggested in older threads (e.g. review layout / “new review UI”) do not exist in my build and are ignored.

Environment

  • Cursor: 2.6.21 (Universal)

  • VS Code base: 1.105.1

  • Commit: fea2f546c979a0a4ad1deab23552a43568807590

  • OS: macOS (Darwin arm64)

  • Stable / Default update channel

Request
Could you confirm whether the top placement is intentional for multi-file review in current versions, and whether a bottom placement (or user preference) is planned? If there is already an official way to restore bottom review controls, please point me to the docs or setting name.

Thanks for the great product — a small layout option would help a lot for long review sessions.

Floating review buttons gone again (I dread Cursor updates)

Hey, this is a known regression. The review controls moved to the top after one of the recent updates.

We’ve already added a setting: Settings > Layout > Review Control Location, where you can choose between Breadcrumb at the bottom next to the code like before, and Island at the top right. It’s available in Nightly for now, and it’ll come to Stable in one of the next releases.

Let me know if the issue still happens after you update.
