FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can my AI agent restart failed builds for a specific branch?

Yes. Ask the agent to find failed builds across your pipeline by using the list builds tool. Once it locates the specific build number, it can run the rebuild tool instantly, eliminating the need to search through hundreds of logs on the dashboard.

How can I check the status of my physical runner agents?

Ask your agent to list all agents connected to the Buildkite organization. It returns their UUIDs, operating systems, and connection state. If a runner hangs offline, your AI can immediately flag it to the Platform team, saving crucial deployment time.

If a commit is pushed to 'main', can the agent trigger a fresh pipeline deployment?

Absolutely. You can provide the commit SHA (or simply ask it to target 'HEAD' on the 'main' branch) and ask the agent to create a new build. It will hit the Buildkite trigger endpoint with a message of your choosing.

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.
