Frequently asked questions
Can I use the agent to mass download confidential employee payroll details?
The integration specifically blocks massive blind dumps to protect PII. You can fetch specific employees individually, maintaining the security boundary of analytical lookups versus mass-extraction vectors.
How do I filter vacations strictly for one employee?
Just write a natural query. The AI knows to fetch the employee's ID first using get_employee or list_employees, and then invokes list_vacations passing that precise employeeId parameter in sequence.
What format is the Buk Domain parameter expected as?
If your company logs into https://techcorp.buk.cl, your Buk Domain is simply techcorp. The engine appends the .buk.cl suffix and proper API structures internally.
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.
