Can't write in the Agent Chat when it's in a separate window

Describe the Bug

When I open the Agent Chat in a separate tab and then drag that tab out of the main Cursor window to create a new standalone window, the text input field in the chat becomes unresponsive. I’m unable to type or send any messages in the chat after doing this. The issue only occurs when the chat is moved to a separate window outside of Cursor.

Steps to Reproduce

Open Cursor.

Open the Agent Chat in a new tab within Cursor.

Drag the Agent Chat tab out of the main Cursor window to create a new separate window.

Try typing in the chat input field in the new window.

Expected Behavior

The Agent Chat input field should remain fully functional after moving the chat to a separate window. I should be able to type and send messages as usual, regardless of whether the chat is in a tab or a separate window.
