Can the AI find an available slot for a specific service next Friday?

Yes. Upon providing the location and service ID along with the desired date, your agent invokes `get_availability`. The connector reads Picktime's master block array, isolating the open time windows seamlessly against existing rules (like business hours and buffers).

If a customer cancels on the phone, can the AI remove their booking?

Absolutely. Just provide the booking ID to the agent and it will utilize the `cancel_booking` function. Picktime will release the blocked slot immediately back to the customer-facing booking page.

Can I grab all upcoming appointments for a specific staff member?

Yes, by matching the staff member's ID from `list_staff` with the broader fetch generated by `list_bookings`. Alternatively, your agent can sort and filter the returned array natively in its reasoning stream, showing you only Dr. Silva's schedule.

Picktime + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Picktime 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.
