Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

The latest Cursor update appears to have removed or hidden the agent delete functionality. Previously, users could delete unused agents, projects, and chats to keep the workspace clean and organized.

This feature is important for:

  • Managing storage and workspace clutter
  • Removing unnecessary or outdated agents
  • Keeping project lists organized
  • Improving overall user experience

Please consider restoring the delete agent functionality or providing an alternative way to remove unwanted agents, projects, and chat history.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Cursor
  2. Navigate to the Agent/Chat section
  3. Right-click on any chat or agent
  4. Observe that the options/context menu is not showing the delete feature

Expected Behavior

A delete/remove option should be available in the context menu to allow users to delete chats, agents, or projects.

Operating System

MacOS

Hey, thanks for the report. This isn’t a bug, it’s a change in the Glass layout. In the context menu, Delete is now Archive. This was done on purpose so you don’t accidentally lose chat history. Archived chats are removed from the active list, and you can restore them later if needed.

If you want Delete back, or want both Delete and Archive, there’s an open feature request. It’s best to add a vote or comment there so the team sees it: Restore Delete option alongside Archive in chat history

I think you need to support both options Delete and Archive in the chat menu:

  • Archive: for users who want to keep chats but hide them

  • Delete: for users who want to permanently remove specific chats
