What is the Aporia MCP Server?
Connect your Aporia workspace to any AI agent to enforce strict guardrails, monitor ML model performance in real time, and audit custom dashboards directly through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Guardrail Validation — Instantly validate LLM messages against your configured Aporia guardrails to detect toxicity, PII, and off-topic responses
- Model Observability — List instrumented machine learning and LLM models, and fetch their architectural details
- Performance Metrics — Retrieve real-time metrics highlighting operational performance and potential data drift
- Active Monitors — View and trigger active monitors to immediately check for data integrity issues or performance degradation
- Dashboards — Access custom dashboards that aggregate your critical observability metrics
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Aporia API Key
- Protect your prompt chains and manage your AI infrastructure directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- AI engineers — enforce guardrails over inputs and outputs during development without swapping contexts
- Data scientists — track model drift and analyze production metrics instantly
- MLOps teams — trigger monitors on demand and visualize custom observability dashboards from a single chat pane
- Risk officers — guarantee compliance checking against PII and hateful content dynamically

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Aporia into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Aporia 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

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent check for PII vulnerabilities in my conversation logs?
Yes. Provide a message context and prompt the agent to validate guardrails for a specific Aporia project. It will query the Aporia rules engine and return actionable insights immediately — ensuring that your outputs remain safe and compliant before deployment.
How quickly can I review data drift alerts triggered over the weekend?
In seconds. During your Monday stand-up, ask your AI agent to fetch metrics for your primary model and list its monitors. The agent will pull up statistical variations and active alerts directly into your chat, saving you from navigating complex visual dashboards when you need a quick situational report.
If a monitor seems stuck, can the agent force its execution?
Absolutely. If you suspect an anomaly, ask the agent to manually trigger the specific monitor ID. Instead of scheduling a redundant pipeline, the agent hits the Aporia backend to force a run, ensuring your MLOps workflow isn't blocked by cadence limitations.
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.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
