Frequently asked questions
Can my agent search for notes with specific tags in Evernote?
Yes. Use the 'search_notes' tool. You can use Evernote's query syntax like 'tag:work' or 'tag:ideas' to filter results. The agent executes the structural match and returns matching note metadata.
How do I create a new note in a specific notebook via chat?
Use the 'create_note' tool. Provide the 'notebook_id' (GUID), a title, and the content. The note will be created and synced across all your Evernote clients immediately.
Can I check my monthly upload quota through the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'get_user' tool. Your agent will fetch authenticated profile information, including your current quota usage and service tier, to help you stay within system limits.
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.
