Cursor IDE

Describe the request

Is there any way to configure Cursor IDE not to open Chat pane at start in default ?

I read the previous discussion, but the feature didn’t exist at the time.

Did it come out now ?

Operating System (if it applies)

MacOS

Hey there!

There’s no built-in setting to prevent the Chat pane from opening on startup. You can use Quick toggle: Cmd+Opt+B (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+B (Windows) to close it instantly.

Hope this helps!

Best,
Mohit

Are you seeing it be reopened on existing workspaces or you’re just hoping that new workspaces can open with out it?
