Frequently asked questions
Do I need the server prefix combined with my API key automatically?
Mailchimp API keys usually have a suffix (like key-us6). The system will parse everything internally. Just paste the full API key into our simplified authentication box naturally.
Can I bulk add 5,000 users directly in a single conversational prompt?
While structurally possible via API logic, context windows prohibit reading arrays of 5000 units. Adding is handled dynamically unit by unit securely or in exceptionally tiny batches to bypass hard egress caps effectively.
Does the system allow firing off actual live campaigns immediately to massive audiences?
No. The MCP server prioritizes safe state changes (subscribers). Launching massive destructive dispatches is omitted from the handler array to avoid rogue AI actions firing misconfigured commercial payload sets blindly.
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
