Chat

Describe the request

Problem

When scrolling through long chat threads, it’s hard to quickly find my own questions among the AI responses. User messages and AI messages look too similar.

Proposed solution

Add settings (e.g. in Cursor Settings > Features > Chat or in settings.json) to customize how user messages appear in the chat:

Font weight – e.g. bold
Text color – e.g. green (#22863a) for better visibility
Example settings:

“cursor.chat.userMessage.fontWeight”: “bold”,
“cursor.chat.userMessage.color”: “#22863a
Benefits

Easier to scroll and find your own questions
Clearer visual separation between user and AI messages
No need for third-party extensions like Custom CSS Loader

Operating System (if it applies)

Windows 10/11
