Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Notesnook (Private Note Taking & E2EE) into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Notesnook (Private Note Taking & E2EE) and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 12 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
How does Notesnook ensure my notes remain private through the agent?
Notesnook uses end-to-end encryption (E2EE). When your agent uses the create_note or get_note tools, it handles encrypted envelopes. This ensures that only authorized clients with your keys can decrypt the actual text body, maintaining zero-knowledge security natively.
Can I see all my notebooks and tags using my agent?
Yes. Use the list_notebooks and list_tags tools to retrieve the organizational hierarchy of your vault. Your agent will report the names and IDs, helping you understand how your encrypted information is classified across your account.
How do I trigger a synchronization between my vault and the server?
The sync_items tool allows your agent to initiate a full or incremental state resolution. By providing a Unix timestamp, your agent can fetch only the most recent encrypted binary objects, ensuring your local environment matches the server's state.
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.
