Can my agent generate SVG vector files using Adobe Firefly?

Yes. Use the 'text_to_vector' tool. Provide a descriptive prompt, and the agent will command the Firefly engine to produce editable SVG vector graphics natively, which are perfect for use in Adobe Illustrator.

How do I perform generative fill on an image via chat?

First, use 'upload_image' to get an 'image_id'. Then, use the 'generative_fill' tool by providing the image ID, a mask ID (for the area to fill), and your prompt. The agent will execute the AI fill synchronously.

Can I remove the background of an image through the agent?

Absolutely. Use the 'remove_background' tool. After uploading your source image and retrieving its ID, the agent will command Firefly to process the file and return a transparent PNG body synchronously.

Adobe Firefly + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Adobe Firefly 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.
