What you can do

Monitor Connections — Retrieve the full list of your configured connections linking sources to destinations
Track Jobs — View historical synchronization runs, success rates, and identify failing sync jobs instantly
Audit Sources & Destinations — List all your active data origins (like Postgres, Stripe) and targets (Snowflake, BigQuery)
Granular Inspection — Fetch detailed UUID configuration and statuses for a specific source or active connection
Workspace Analytics — Verify your active Airbyte workspaces and general environment configurations

How it works

Subscribe to this server
Enter your Airbyte API URL and API Key

Why Cursor?

Cursor's Agent mode turns Airbyte into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Airbyte and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 7 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

—
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
—
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
—
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
—
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does this work with Airbyte Cloud and Self-Hosted Enterprise instances?

Yes. You are required to pass the URL parameter during setup. You can use 'https://api.airbyte.com/v1' for Airbyte Cloud, or point it directly to your private self-hosted API endpoint hostname.

Can the agent create new connections or trigger sync jobs automatically?

Currently, this core MCP exposes read-only tools designed to safely list, track, and monitor your infrastructure without accidentally mutating mission-critical data warehouse state during conversational usage.

How do I find a specific Connection ID to check its jobs?

Simply ask the agent to run the list connections tool first! It will output all active connections alongside their UUIDs, which you can then ask the agent to dive deeper into.

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.

Tools not appearing in Cursor

Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
