Describe the Bug
as reported by ‘What is new in 1.3.0? - #26 by nickz22 on the previous thread, today when opening cursor v1.3.0 (Windows), the ‘manual mode’ is missing from cursor chat drop down.
Quite frustrating as that is the mode i use the most, and not sure how to re-create it using ‘custom modes’. My update access is as always been set to ‘default’.
Steps to Reproduce
open cursor v1.3.0 on windows > goto cursor chat window > mode dropdown missing ‘manual mode’. only ‘agent’, ‘ask’ and ‘background agent’ now exist
Expected Behavior
should have ‘agent mode’ , ‘manual mode’, ‘ask mode’ and ‘background agent mode’ in cursor chat window dropdown modes
