How does Motion's AI auto-scheduling work through the agent?

When you use the `create_task` tool, you specify a priority (ASAP to LOW). Your agent dispatches this to Motion, which immediately finds the best available blocks in your calendar, ensuring your high-priority items are scheduled first without manual intervention.

Can I move tasks between different workspaces through a conversation?

Yes. Use the `move_task` tool by providing the Task ID and the Destination Workspace ID. Your agent will update the task's logic container, allowing you to organize your schedule across personal and professional boundaries seamlessly.

How do I see my projected completion times for all tasks in a workspace?

The `get_schedule` tool retrieves the AI-optimized timeline for a specific Workspace ID. Your agent will report the projected time blocks for each task, showing you exactly how Motion's AI has resolved your daily priorities.

Motion (AI Calendar & Task Management) + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Motion (AI Calendar & Task 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.
