Cursor 3.11 adds Side Chats and Conversation Search

Cursor version 3.11 introduces 'Side Chats,' a feature that allows builders to ask tangential questions or research alternatives in a separate panel without disrupting the main AI agent's current task. The update also includes a more powerful conversation search to find past agent transcripts beyond just project names or PR numbers.

Why it matters: This allows non-technical builders to perform quick research or clarify concepts mid-build without the risk of 'confusing' the AI or losing the progress of their main coding agent.
