Fix Drag-and-Drop Agent Organization

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

Drag-and-drop appears to work visually, but it does not actually reorganize agents. After dragging an agent to a new position or group, the change is not applied or persisted.

Please make drag-and-drop fully functional for organizing agents, including reordering agents, moving them between groups or lists if supported, and saving the updated organization across sessions.

Steps to Reproduce

drag and drop agent on panel

Expected Behavior

Change agent item order

Operating System

Windows 10/11

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hi Ron!

This is actually working as designed today, though I agree the drag behavior is misleading. In the Agents window, dragging an individual agent is wired to open it in an editor tab, not to reorder or regroup it in the sidebar. That’s why the drag looks like it should rearrange things but the order never changes.

How organization works right now:

  • Agents are grouped automatically into recency sections (Pinned, Today, Yesterday, and so on) and sorted most-recent-first within each.
  • Pin is the manual lever: hover an agent row and click the pin icon to keep it at the top.

Manual drag-to-reorder and custom groups/folders for agents aren’t available yet.

Thanks for the clarification, Mohit.

I understand the current behavior now, but I agree that the drag interaction is misleading because it suggests agents can be reordered or regrouped when they actually can’t.

Since manual organization, custom folders/groups, and drag-to-reorder aren’t available yet, would it make sense to move this to the Feature Requests section? I think there would be interest from users who manage a larger number of agents and need more control over organization than recency-based sorting and pinning provide.

Thanks for the explanation and for considering it.

Yes, that makes sense. I’ll move it to Feature Requests so it’s tracked as a capability ask rather than a bug.

Reframing it this way also makes it easier for others to find and vote on. We’ll be tracking the thread to gauge interest, which is what helps the team prioritize, so if anyone else wants per-agent reordering or custom folders/groups, please chime in here.
