Frequently asked questions
Can the AI generate a native download link for a large video asset?
Yes. Once the agent identifies the particular asset ID from a list command, you can request a direct download link. It invokes the platform's specific get_download_link route avoiding manual gallery searching.
Will it discover collections created by other members of my team?
Yes. The list_user_collections endpoint enables cross-inspections returning aggregated folders that exist on Bynder infrastructure letting you know precisely which assets were curated by designers.
Does the integration allow altering taxonomy and metadata fields?
Yes. Using the patch_asset_metadata functionality, you can ask your AI to append missing SEO properties natively directly inside your Bynder catalog records.
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.
