Frequently asked questions
How do I get an API Key for Freshservice?
Log in to your Freshservice instance, click on your Profile picture in the top-right corner, go to 'Profile Settings', and your API Key will be displayed on the right side.
What is my 'Domain prefix'?
Your domain prefix is the first part of your Freshservice URL (e.g. if your URL is 'acme.freshservice.com', the prefix is 'acme').
Can I view my CMDB assets via the agent?
Yes! Use the 'list_it_assets' tool to retrieve your hardware and software inventory from the Freshservice CMDB.
Is it possible to track change management requests?
Yes, the 'list_change_requests' tool allows you to monitor all change tickets to ensure proper IT governance and stability.
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
