Display count of waiting chats

Describe the request

When I work without sound it is tricky to track when Cursor is finished its jobs. Now it forces me to switch periodically back.

But it would be good if we display number of waiting/ready agents.
Like this is done for Slack or current system services:

Operating System (if it applies)

MacOS

Hi Eugen,

Thank you very much for the feature request. I want to call your attention to a very similar feature that is already live today. Right now, we have a menu bar icon that shows how many unread agents are waiting for you to review. This should be on by default, but if you don’t see it, you can toggle it on under Cursor Settings → General → Notifications → Menu Bar Icon.

Yes, that is separate feature and it does not work. It always shows that there are something waiting for review.
