Built-in capabilities (10)
If the tag does not exist, it is created automatically. A device can have multiple tags. Use to organize beacons by floor, zone, store section, or campaign. Tags persist in the cloud and do not require physical beacon access. Assign an organizational tag to a specific Estimote beacon device, adding it to a logical group for fleet management, analytics filtering, and proximity campaign targeting
After creating a location, assign beacon devices to it for organized fleet management and location-scoped analytics. Use when deploying beacons at a new site. Register a new physical location (store, office, venue) in Estimote Cloud, providing the site name, street address, and geographic coordinates for beacon fleet organization and analytics grouping
The identifier is the beacon MAC address or Estimote Cloud ID. Returns the full device shadow including pending settings changes. Use to diagnose beacon configuration issues or verify firmware update status. Retrieve detailed configuration and status for a specific Estimote beacon device, including its current broadcasting power, advertising interval, sensor readings, firmware version, and physical location assignment
Returns the most recent sensor readings from the beacon. Not all sensors are available on all hardware models. Estimote Proximity Beacons support temperature and motion; Location Beacons add light and pressure sensors. Use for environmental monitoring and occupancy detection. Retrieve real-time sensor telemetry data from a specific Estimote beacon, including temperature readings, ambient light levels, accelerometer motion detection, magnetometer orientation, and barometric pressure where supported by hardware
Supports query parameters for date range (from, to), device identifier, and tag filtering. Returns aggregated metrics showing how many mobile devices detected each beacon. Use for foot traffic analysis, retail engagement measurement, and space utilization studies. Retrieve proximity analytics data for Estimote beacon devices, including detection counts, unique visitor estimates, dwell time distributions, and engagement metrics over a specified time period
estimote.com. Returns a paginated array of beacon objects. Each beacon includes its MAC address (the most reliable identifier), iBeacon UUID/Major/Minor, Eddystone namespace/instance, and shadow settings. Use to inventory your deployed beacon fleet. List all Estimote beacon devices registered in your Estimote Cloud account, returning device identifiers, hardware types (Proximity/Location/Sticker), battery levels, firmware versions, and current configuration status
Returns an array of tag objects with names and associated device counts. Tags are the primary organizational mechanism in Estimote Cloud. Use to understand your current fleet taxonomy before assigning or filtering devices. List all organizational tags defined in your Estimote Cloud account, which are used to group and categorize beacon devices by location, use case, department, or any custom classification scheme
Returns an array of location objects. Locations serve as containers for organizing beacons by physical site. Each location can have multiple beacon devices assigned to it. Use to audit your deployment footprint across multiple sites. List all physical locations (venues/buildings/stores) registered in your Estimote Cloud account, returning location names, addresses, geographic coordinates, and the number of beacons deployed at each site
WARNING: This permanently removes the device from your fleet. The beacon will continue broadcasting but will no longer be managed by Estimote Cloud. Only use when decommissioning hardware. The device can be re-added later via the Estimote app. Permanently remove an Estimote beacon device from your Cloud account, deleting all associated configuration, analytics history, and location assignments. This action is irreversible
Changes are queued in the cloud shadow and synchronized to the physical beacon when a device running the Estimote SDK connects to it. Common updates include name, tags, broadcasting power (dBm), and advertising interval (ms). Update the configuration of a specific Estimote beacon device by modifying its broadcasting parameters, advertising interval, transmission power, or attached metadata tags through the Estimote Cloud shadow system

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent check the battery levels of all my beacons?
Yes. Use the 'list_beacon_devices' tool. The agent retrieves the overarching inventory of your fleet, returning hardware types and precise battery levels for every registered device natively.
How do I update the advertising interval of a beacon via chat?
Use the 'update_beacon_settings' tool. Provide the beacon identifier and a JSON object with the new settings (e.g., '{"settings": {"advertisingInterval": 300}}'). The changes are queued in the cloud shadow and synced automatically.
Can I see real-time temperature data from my beacons through the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'get_beacon_telemetry' tool. Your agent will fetch the most recent sensor readings, including temperature, light, and motion detection, directly from the beacon's cloud record.
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
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
