Can I format the transactional emails organically via prompt?

Absolutely. Using the `send_transactional_email` operation, the AI dynamically renders the HTML body from your specific text instructions or leverages pre-made numeric Brevo templates.

Is it possible to assign custom CRM attributes when creating a contact?

Yes. The `create_contact` tool exposes a JSON parameter block mapping fields perfectly (like FIRSTNAME, LASTNAME, CITY) directly alongside their assigned inclusion lists.

Are the SMS dispatched globally?

Yes! Brevo's massive routing handles global cellular numbers, and the `send_sms` command executes that payload identically as long as your Brevo account remains credit-funded and active.

Brevo + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Brevo 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.
