Can I update my knowledge base via the agent?

Yes! Use the `create_article` tool to add new information to your Ada knowledge base. This helps the AI bot stay up-to-date with your latest product or policy changes.

What are the API rate limits on Ada?

The default platform API limit is 10,000 requests per day (10 per second). Some specific endpoints, such as the Data Export API, have additional limits like 15,000 requests per day.

Are there quotas per knowledge article in Ada?

Yes, Knowledge Base APIs enforce a constraint of 100KB per individual article, up to a maximum limit of 50,000 global articles in your organization.

About Ada MCP Server

Connect your Ada account to your AI agent to unlock advanced customer service automation. From monitoring real-time conversations to managing your knowledge base and syncing user metadata, your agent handles conversational AI orchestration through natural language.

Cursor's Agent mode turns Ada into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Ada and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 4 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

What you can do

Conversation Oversight — List and retrieve details of active or past support conversations to identify trends
End User Management — Manage user profiles and sync metadata (metavariables) between Ada and your external systems
Knowledge Management — Create, update, and list articles in your knowledge base to help your AI agent provide better answers
Real-time Analytics — Retrieve insights on automated resolution rates and agent handoff patterns
Compliance Support — Manage data privacy requests and conversation retention directly from your chat interface

The Ada MCP Server exposes 4 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Cursor with the Ada MCP Server

Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with Ada through the Model Context Protocol.

Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context

Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards

MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment

VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Ada + Cursor Use Cases

Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Ada MCP Server delivers measurable value.

Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP

Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically

Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates

Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data

Ada + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Ada MCP Server with Cursor.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
