The Chat Input Box Is Too Small — Needs to Be Resizable or Multi-line

Describe the Bug

Hi Cursor Team,

The current AI chat input box is far too small for serious use. It’s limited to a single line and doesn’t resize, which makes it frustrating to write or edit anything beyond a short prompt.

Steps to Reproduce

This is a major UX flaw for a tool that promotes AI-powered development. Please consider one of the following ASAP:

Make the input box resizable or auto-expand to multiple lines;

Add an option to enable a full-size chat panel by default.

A wider input area is essential for users who rely on AI for complex prompts. This limitation breaks the workflow and undermines the power of your AI features.

Thanks for your attention — hoping to see this improved soon.
