FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I get an API Key for Givebutter?

Log in to your Givebutter dashboard, navigate to Settings > Developers > API, and you can generate a new secret API key there.

Can I process live credit card transactions via the agent?

No, this integration is for management and data retrieval. For security, live donor checkouts must still happen through Givebutter's secure forms.

What format should the donation amount be in?

The Givebutter API uses major units for amounts. For example, to record a $10.50 donation, you should provide the decimal value '10.50'.

How do I link a transaction to a specific campaign?

Use the 'campaign_id' parameter in the 'record_offline_donation' tool. You can find your campaign IDs using the 'list_fundraising_campaigns' tool.

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.
