What is the Braintrust MCP Server?
Connect your Braintrust AI observation platform to any agent and maintain intense logic evaluation capabilities directly over conversation.
What you can do
- Project Analytics — Retrieve logic banks and branch isolated AI test sets
- Experiments — Create real trace regression tests appending unique LLM scoring iterations
- Datasets — Query accurate Ground Truth sets and insert new prompt templates mapping your system accuracy
- Prompt Versioning — Grab perfectly frozen semantic prompts without editing core code boundaries
How it works
- Add this server to your AI cluster
- Bind your personal Braintrust API ID variables
- Leverage complex model tuning pipelines querying native AI logic regressions on chat
Automate LLM regression analyses effortlessly. Rather than scrolling tables, your bot handles strict semantic checking via Braintrust infrastructure logic directly.
Who is this for?
- AI Developers — push Ground Truth evaluation text datasets on the fly testing prompt differences
- Machine Learning Engineers — track specific variable distributions checking accurate regressions remotely
- Product Teams — observe exact string prompts dynamically pushing features validating response styles
- Data Scientists — construct massive matrices and evaluate test runs without pulling script queries
Built-in capabilities (10)
Establish a new historical experiment trace to record LLM pipeline tests
Create a new project environment for tracking AI evaluations and datasets
Retrieve a specific dataset containing exact schemas bounding LLM outputs
Retrieve exact variable contexts and literal text templates for a prompt
Append new test cases into a dataset matrix targeting specific evaluations

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Braintrust into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Braintrust and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 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 I insert new test data dynamically tracking specific limits?
Yes. Utilizing the insert_dataset_row method, you can effortlessly inject exact JSON tracking payload mapping strings directly inside the text corpus evaluating the final results.
Does it pull out original Prompt definitions stored securely?
Certainly. The get_prompt command isolates and returns perfectly version-controlled bounding parameters slicing literal templates natively hosted under the Braintrust database.
How deeply can it inspect test regressions or scoring limits?
Using the robust list_experiments call, you can branch full arrays separating LLM version behaviors over massive iterations tracking the performance anomalies accurately.
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.
