Agents Panel defaults open no matter what I do

I use Cursor primarily as an IDE. I reach for agents as and when I need them. And when I do, I’m typically using a dedicated interface for that - eg the new Agents Window.

No matter how many times I toggle it off, the Agents panel will force itself open every single time I open a Cursor window. I will have been working on one project for an entire day, not once using the Agent panel, then the following day opening the same project, the Agents panel will force itself open after a short delay like a popup.

I need my tools to behave like tools, not like advertisements. How can I prevent the Agents panel from forcing itself open every single session?

Thanks for reporting this Sam. We’re aware of this issue and have a bug report raised with the team.

Sorry for the frustration.

I’ll follow up here as soon as we have a fix available.

Having the IDE take 3 clicks to open (click cursor, click editor, close agent…) instead of one, every single time, is (un)surprisingly such an annoyance lol.
