How to set agent window language

Hey @zheng_gu, there isn’t a language setting inside the Agents Window right now. The display language is set once for the whole app, from the IDE window:

  1. In the Agents Window, open the IDE with File > Open IDE (or Ctrl+Shift+N, Cmd+Shift+N on Mac).
  2. In the IDE window, press Ctrl+Shift+P (Cmd+Shift+P on Mac) and run “Configure Display Language”.
  3. Pick your language. If it isn’t installed yet, choose it from the “Available” list and let it install the language pack.
  4. Fully quit and restart Cursor.

Same as with Cursor Settings before, this only translates the parts of the UI that come from VS Code (menus, editor panels, standard settings). The Agents Window, chat, and Cursor Settings are Cursor-specific screens and are currently English only, so most of the Agents Window will stay in English even after switching.

If what you mainly want is for the agent to answer in your language, you can add a User Rule like “Always respond in Simplified Chinese”. Open Cursor Settings and search for “Rules” to add one.

Full localization of the Agents Window is a feature request others have asked for too. You can add your vote here: Please Add Chinese Support for the Agents Window
