How do I find my Afterpay Merchant credentials?

Log in to your Afterpay Merchant Portal, go to **Settings** > **API**. You can generate and retrieve your **Merchant ID** and **Secret Key** there. Make sure to choose the correct region (US, AU, UK).

Can I process a partial refund via the agent?

Yes! Use the `refund_payment` tool and provide the `orderId` and the specific amount. Your agent will submit the partial refund request to Afterpay for processing.

What is the difference between Capture and Auth?

'Capture' finalizes the payment immediately. 'Auth' (Authorization) holds the funds on the customer's account, and you must call the capture tool later (usually when shipping) to finalize the transaction.

Afterpay + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Afterpay 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.
