Can I create new tasks directly through my agent?

Yes. Use the `create_action` tool to generate new tasks in a specific workspace. You provide the title and workspace ID, and your agent will handle the backend orchestration to create the action instantly.

How do I find my Workspace ID?

Ask your agent to `list_workspaces`. It will return a list of all workspaces you have access to, along with their unique IDs, which are required for project and action operations.

Can I see the templates we have defined for repeatable workflows?

Absolutely. Use the `list_templates` tool to see all action templates in a workspace. This helps your agent understand the predefined workflows your team uses for consistent project delivery.

Hive (Project Management) + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Hive (Project Management) 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.
