Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?
Cursor IDE
Describe the Bug
Cursor automatically adds a Settings (gear/cog) icon to the title bar of every TreeView contributed by a third‑party extension. Clicking it opens Cursor’s Settings UI, not anything related to the extension.
As an extension author, I have no documented way to suppress this injected icon, and it visually clashes with the view/title actions my extension contributes via the standard VS Code contribution point.
Where it happens
- Any view declared by an extension under contributes.views in package.json.
- The cog appears in the view’s title bar, alongside (and sometimes overlapping the visual grouping of) the extension’s own contributes.menus[“view/title”] navigation entries.
Steps to Reproduce
- Install any extension that contributes one or more views under ‘contributes.views’, ideally one that also contributes ‘view/title’ ‘navigation’ actions.
- Open the extension’s view container.
- Observe the Settings cog rendered by Cursor in each view’s title bar, in addition to the extension’s own title actions.
- Click the cog → Cursor’s Settings opens.
Expected Behavior
Cog icon shouldn’t be there I think since it is absent both on Windows 11 and Mac Os

Does this stop you from using Cursor
No - Cursor works, but with this issue
