Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hi @ekrw Thanks very much for reporting! I tried to replicate this bug as you have specified but I couldn’t replicate it - the renaming worked fine in plan mode with the auto model. Do you have a screenshot of what happens when you try to rename?
Just curious to see what it looks like from your end when you try to rename

Weird, I am able to rename the Running Agent now.

I’ll post any screen recordings if I can repro again!
