Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey @joshy, thanks for the report!

This is a known issue in 3.24 that we’re already tracking, and I’ve added your report to it. Custom icons on local chats in the Agents Window aren’t being kept right now, so those rows fall back to the gray dot, and picking a new icon with Edit Icon doesn’t stick either.

Chats that run in the cloud aren’t affected, so Edit Icon still works on those in the meantime. For local chats there’s no workaround yet. I’d hold off on using Edit Icon on them until the fix ships, since re-picking can overwrite the icon that is still saved for that chat.

Once the fix is out, you may need to set icons again on chats you customized before the update.
