Can I update the status of a work order through the agent?

Yes. The `update_order_status` tool allows your AI agent to change the lifecycle status of any service order (e.g., to 'InProgress' or 'Completed') so you can manage dispatching directly through chat.

How do I see the contact details for a field technician?

You can use the `get_employee_profile` tool. Simply provide the unique employee ID, and your agent will return their full profile details, including contact information and assigned skills.

Is it possible to list all service locations for a customer?

Absolutely. Using the `list_service_locations` tool, you can retrieve a list of all physical sites and addresses registered in your WorkWave instance, helping you coordinate where jobs need to be performed.

WorkWave + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating WorkWave 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.
