Can't select model or Agent

Describe the Bug

When the chat is in the editor mode, I cannot select the agent. Or edit or ask a question button. I also cannot change the. Model the UI loads and then Disappears instantly. It doesn’t allow me to select anything. When the chat is in the composer mode on the right side. Then there’s no issue.

Steps to Reproduce

Pull up chat on the composer mode and then you have to split the chat with the 3 button drop down option to open in editor mode and then that’s the issue. The only thing I have running is a development server. And no other model is being used. In any other chat.

Expected Behavior

When you Try to select a different model. The UI opens and immediately closes. Same with the agent. Request trying to change it to ask or manual mode.

Sometimes - I can sometimes use Cursor

Hey, thanks for the report. I was able to reproduce this issue, and we’ll work on fixing it. As a workaround, you can use shortcuts to trigger model selection or mode.

Is this being solved? You posted over a week ago.

I still encountered the issue yesterday, unfortunately.
