Can it accidentally affect my entire Sinch account?

No. The integration only supports sending SMS, managing batches, and handling contact groups. It cannot modify billing, account settings, or access other Sinch services.

How does authentication work?

You provide your Service Plan ID and API Token. The integration generates a Bearer token header automatically for each request — no OAuth setup required.

What is a batch in Sinch?

A batch is a single SMS send operation that can target one or many recipients. Each batch has a unique ID and can be tracked, updated, or cancelled before delivery.

Sinch + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Sinch 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.
