   This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

   • [FEATURE]: Make the desktop app "Open in" menu configurable with custom editors #15500: Directly requests making the desktop app "Open in" menu configurable with custom editors (covers any unlisted editor)
   • fix(desktop): Windsurf is not a valid option in "Open In" dropdown #18141: Requests adding a specific editor (Windsurf) to the "Open In" dropdown — same pattern as this issue
   • Support for Cursor? #2072: Requests adding Cursor to the supported editors list — same type of request

   If you believe this was flagged incorrectly, please let a maintainer know.

   Thank you for updating the title to include [FEATURE]: — that's a step in the right direction!

   However, this issue still needs a bit more work to meet our contributing guidelines. Specifically:

   • No issue template used: Please use the Feature Request template. It includes a verification checkbox confirming you've searched for duplicates, and a structured description section.
   • Missing verification checkbox: The template requires you to confirm you've searched for existing issues.
   • Description too brief: A single sentence doesn't give enough context. Please explain the problem or need — for example, why you use Positron, how you'd expect the integration to work, and any relevant system/environment info.

   Please edit the issue to fill in the Feature Request template. If you need help finding it, it's available when you click "New Issue" in the repository.

   Thank you for updating the title to include [FEATURE]: — that helps!

   However, this issue still doesn't meet our contributing guidelines:

   • Feature Request template not used: Please use the Feature Request template, which includes:
     • A verification checkbox confirming you've searched for existing issues (including [FEATURE]: Make the desktop app "Open in" menu configurable with custom editors #15500, fix(desktop): Windsurf is not a valid option in "Open In" dropdown #18141, and Support for Cursor? #2072, which are similar requests)
     • A description explaining the problem or need — e.g. why you use Positron, how you'd expect the integration to work, and any relevant system/environment info

   A single sentence isn't enough context for the maintainers to act on this. Please edit the issue to fill in the Feature Request template fully.
