Frequently asked questions
Can I use this to find specific articles across all my subscriptions?
Yes! Use the list_stream_contents tool with the system stream ID user/-/state/com.google/reading-list. You can then ask the AI to filter or search for specific keywords within the returned articles.
Is it possible to star articles directly from the conversation?
Absolutely. Use the edit_tag tool and provide the Article ID with the add parameter set to user/-/state/com.google/starred. This will instantly save the article to your Starred folder in Inoreader.
How do I see how many unread articles I have in each folder?
Run the get_unread_counts tool. It returns a structured list of all your streams (feeds, folders, and tags) along with the precise count of unread items for each.
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.
