FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I search for a specific drug brand like 'Advil'?

Yes! Use the search_drug_labels tool with a search parameter like openfda.brand_name:"Advil". The agent will return the official SPL data including warnings and ingredients.

How can I find out how many different manufacturers produce a specific generic drug?

You can use the count_drug_labels tool. Set the count parameter to openfda.manufacturer_name.exact and use the search parameter to filter by the generic name.

Is it possible to sort results by the most recent label updates?

Yes. When using search_drug_labels, you can provide a sort parameter such as effective_time:desc to see the most recently updated labels first.

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.
