FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I take a full-page screenshot using the agent?

Yes! Use the take_screenshot tool and in the options field, provide a JSON string like {"fullPage": true}. Browserless will capture the entire length of the page.

How do I convert a web page to a PDF?

Simply ask the agent to generate_pdf and provide the URL. It will use Browserless to render the page and return the generated PDF file (usually as a binary response or link).

Does the integration allow scraping specific data fields?

Yes. Use the run_scrape action and provide the URL along with an elements array containing the selectors and names for the data you want to extract.

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.
