Cursor hangs on specific repo; relaunch shows broken UI (see image)

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

For the second time today, Cursor crashed on me. It freezes—starting with the terminal not working, showing only the background and not accepting input—and if you try to close and reopen it, it comes up as shown in image 1.

I’ve noticed it only happens in a specific project; if I switch projects, it opens normally, as demonstrated in the attached video.

EDIT 1:
NEW INFO: It seems only the Agent window is broken. I managed to switch back to the normal window using Ctrl+E.

Steps to Reproduce

i don’t know.
