Can I create a new customer record through my agent?

Yes. Use the `create_contact` tool by providing the company name, contact person, and email. Your agent will format the data according to Lexware Office standards and assign the correct role ('customer' or 'vendor') instantly.

How do I check the payment status of an invoice?

The `get_invoice` tool retrieves the complete document structure, including the current status (e.g., 'paid', 'open', or 'overdue'). Your agent can summarize these details for you directly in the conversation.

Can my agent list all accounting categories available in my account?

Absolutely. Use the `list_posting_categories` tool to retrieve the defined chart of accounts. This is essential for understanding how revenues and expenses are mapped to your financial reports and DATEV exports.

Lexware Office (Accounting & Invoicing) + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Lexware Office (Accounting & Invoicing) 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.
