Can I publish an urgent announcement to a specific stream from the agent?

Yes! Use the `create_post` action with the target Stream ID and your announcement text. Your agent will post it to Beekeeper instantly.

How do I find an employee's contact details quickly?

Simply ask the agent to `search_users` with the person's name. It will return matching profiles including their user IDs and other public metadata.

Is it possible to send a direct message to a user via the agent?

Yes. Use the `send_message` tool with the Recipient User ID and your message text to facilitate direct communication through the agent.

Beekeeper + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Beekeeper 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.
