Cannot hide Agent history in 2.1

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Cannot hide Agent history in 2.1. In 2.1 when the agent pane is shown, the agent history panel is shown all the time now and does not appear to be hide-able. It takes up a lot of screen real estate on my laptop, and I normally am using one agent per window at a time.

Steps to Reproduce

OSX 15.7.2, Cursor 2.1.48

Expected Behavior

Agent history window should toggle visibility

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

… it appears that choosing Editor hides the agent history. I find the Agents and Editor “tabs” unintuitive, not sure the intention with them, and so I didn’t think of choosing Editor as a solution since I haven’t needed to click on it at all since updating.

Hey, thanks for the report. In 2.1 the switch between Agents and Editor moved to the arrows button in the top-right. A quick way to hide the Agents history is to switch to the Editor via that button or use the shortcut Cmd+E, or you can close the panel with Cmd+Alt+S.

Please confirm that Cmd+E and the arrows button solve it.
