What is the difference between 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K?

10-K is the comprehensive annual report with audited financials (filed once/year). 10-Q is the quarterly update with unaudited financials (filed 3x/year). 8-K is a current report filed within 4 business days of material events — earnings, M&A, CEO changes, bankruptcy, etc.

What does Form 4 report?

Form 4 must be filed by corporate insiders (officers, directors, or 10%+ shareholders) when they buy or sell their own company's stock. It reveals executive sentiment.

How far back does the full-text search go?

The SEC EDGAR Full-Text Search generally indexes documents back to 2001, covering over two decades of corporate filings.

SEC EDGAR Filings — 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, Insider Trades & Full-Text Search + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating SEC EDGAR Filings — 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, Insider Trades & Full-Text Search 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.
