Default to Cloud agents on Desktop Agents app

[Matt-AVST (Matt Treacy)]

Feature request for product/service

Cursor IDE

Describe the request

When I launch new chats new agents it always wants to do it locally and I have to manually swap to cloud. but I want to default to cloud. Can we add a setting to set a default?

To run on cloud we hit “run on cloud” but the Arrow in read to send a message is another logical user interaction start point, and it makes the chat counter intuitive and less clean to have the options presented this way if you never want to run locally.

Operating System (if it applies)

MacOS

Hey @Matt-AVST!

We’ve been discussing letting users set a default here! In the meantime, if you group by environment:

You can always open a Cloud Agent with this button.

Or, if you group by workspace, you can get workspace-specific (clicking + on the workspace with a cloud icon will open a cloud agent, but local on workspaces with the folder icon)
