Frequently asked questions
How do I obtain my Factored Quality API Key?
Users with Company Admin access can generate API keys by navigating to Settings > API Keys in the Factored Quality Portal.
Can I integrate this with my logistics provider?
Yes, you can use the API data to automate workflows with freight forwarders, such as green-lighting goods for pickup based on passing inspection results.
Is it possible to view full lab test reports?
The get_lab_test tool retrieves detailed metadata and results for your lab tests. For full PDF reports, you can find the direct link in the metadata returned by the API.
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.
