Hey, love the new agents window, but I feel like my main usage of Cursor always involves the file explorer and files, which is the main difference versus using Claude or Codex apps.
I really wish that we could customize the layout windows so that we can move the file explorer tree to the left and keep the agents, like the chats, to the right, stuff like that.
I understand that the main focus is on agents here and to be similar to Claude and Codex, but 90% of the time that I’m using Cursor lately, it’s for the IDE experience.
Being able to just have that layout the way I’m comfortable with would be awesome.
I’m surprised this isn’t getting as more traction, but I’ve also not had the time to browse the forum for similar topics. Am I the one out of touch, or is this already a planned feature? Is the Agent window deliberately different for the sake of setting itself apart from the editor layout? Agent chat on the left, file browser in the middle, code on the right isn’t making sense to me.
The way I’m able to rationalize this design choice right now is Cursor is trying to become less of a programming tool and more of a consumer tool like Codex. We’re the demographic being phased out.
