Frequently asked questions
Can my agent retrieve localized Google search results for a specific city?
Yes. Provide the city or country name in the 'location' parameter. The agent will query DataForSEO's localized endpoints to return the exact SERP results as seen by users in that specific geographic boundary.
How do I audit competitor rankings across different search engines?
You can use specialized tools for each engine (google_organic, bing_organic, baidu_organic, etc.). Provide the target keyword, and the agent will retrieve the top positional stats, allowing you to compare rankings across multiple global indexes.
Does the agent help with Amazon product price and stock monitoring?
Absolutely. The 'amazon_asin' tool retrieves live retail data including Price, Best Sellers Rank (BSR), and Prime availability. Your agent can track these variables natively by ASIN to monitor e-commerce trends.
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.
Server shows as disconnected
