Tab in chat is enabled while tab is disabled in settings

[Antonio_Lacerda]

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I’m not a fan of auto-complete or Tab as I like to be completely left alone when writing code. On the rare occasions I do so, nowadays.
But having suggestions on the chat is really distracting and, from I’ve experienced so far, not useful. It would be great if those could follow the same rule in settings for Tab, so I can disable that auto-complete too, please. Thank you

Steps to Reproduce

Disable Tab
Open chat
Start typing and see Tab enabled

Expected Behavior

Don’t have auto-complete enabled

Operating System

MacOS

Current Cursor Version (Menu → About Cursor → Copy)

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

Hey, this sounds like the Agent autocomplete. You can turn it off in Settings under the Beta tab.
