Debugging and planning in parallel

You're now juggling two new priorities in TaskMate. Users report that the task filtering logic behaves inconsistently — filters sometimes show tasks they shouldn’t. At the same time, your team wants to introduce a new “Team Activity Timeline” that visualizes project activity over time.

Instead of handling these sequentially, you open the Cursor’s Agent Window and split the work across two panes. One agent will focus on diagnosing and fixing the filtering logic. The other will outline the architecture and data requirements for the new timeline feature.

Arrange the steps to show how you would use Cursor to work on both tasks in parallel while staying in control of the workflow.
