Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns NASA Earth — Full-Disk Imagery & Natural Events into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from NASA Earth — Full-Disk Imagery & Natural Events and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 5 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
What is the DSCOVR satellite?
DSCOVR orbits at the L1 Lagrange point, 1.5 million km from Earth. Its EPIC camera takes full-disk images of Earth every 1-2 hours, always showing the sunlit face.
What is EONET?
EONET (Earth Observatory Natural Event Tracker) provides real-time data on active natural events. It tracks wildfires, severe storms, volcanoes, and more, updated daily from satellite sources.
Can I get historical data using the EPIC camera?
Yes, you can browse images by specific dates since the DSCOVR satellite began taking regular photos in 2015, allowing you to see Earth on a specific past day.
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.
