FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I search across all my books and chapters at once?

Yes! Use the search tool with your query string. It will return relevant results from pages, chapters, and books across your entire BookStack instance.

Is it possible to retrieve a page's content in Markdown format?

Absolutely. Use the export_page tool and set the format to 'markdown'. You can also export to PDF, HTML, or plaintext.

How do I see what was recently deleted?

You can use the list_recycle_bin tool to view items that have been moved to the recycle bin before they are permanently removed from the system.

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.
