Hey, thanks for the report. From the screenshot, it looks like the buttons are actually there, but they’re invisible because the icon color matches the background. This is a known contrast issue on dark themes.

The most common cause is the titleBar.activeForeground setting in workbench.colorCustomizations often set by the Peacock extension. Try this:

  • Open settings.json via Ctrl+Shift+P, then run Open User Settings (JSON)
  • Find workbench.colorCustomizations. If it has titleBar.activeForeground, delete that line or change it to a lighter color like #cccccc
  • If you use Peacock, try disabling it

If you don’t have any customizations, try running cursor --disable-extensions in your terminal and check if the buttons show up.

Let me know if that helped.
