Frequently asked questions
Can I check the balance for a specific tenant using the agent?
Yes! Use the get_tenant tool with the Tenant ID. Your agent will fetch the detailed profile, including the current total balance due.
How do I list all the active maintenance tasks?
Simply ask the agent to list_tasks. It will retrieve the current maintenance tasks from your Buildium account, including descriptions and status information.
Does the integration allow creating a new work order?
The current toolset focuses on querying and monitoring (Read-Only) for operational efficiency. Creating or updating work orders should be managed via the Buildium administrator portal.
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.
