FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Content API Key for Ghost?

Log in to your Ghost Admin dashboard, navigate to Settings > Integrations, and add a Custom Integration. You will find the Content API Key there.

Can I publish new posts using this integration?

No, this integration uses the Content API which is read-only. It is designed to safely retrieve and query your published content.

What is the Base URL format?

Your Base URL is the root domain where your Ghost site is hosted, for example: 'https://demo.ghost.io'. Do not include '/ghost/api/'.

How do I fetch related tags and authors for a post?

Use the 'include' parameter in the 'get_post_by_slug' tool and pass the string 'tags,authors'.

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.
