Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns OpenWeather into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from OpenWeather and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 11 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 do I get an OpenWeather API key?
Visit openweathermap.org/api, click Sign Up for a free account, go to API Keys in your account settings, and create a new key. Copy it — it's a 32-character hex string. Free tier includes 60 calls/minute.
Can I get weather alerts for my location?
Yes! Use get_weather_alerts with lat/lon coordinates. Returns active alerts with sender name, event type, severity, description and start/end times. Useful for monitoring severe weather, floods, heat waves and other dangerous conditions.
Can I get historical weather data?
Yes! Use get_historical_weather with lat/lon and a date in YYYY-MM-DD format. Returns the weather conditions for that specific day including temperature, humidity, wind and pressure.
How do I find coordinates for a city?
Use geocode with the city name (e.g. 'London', 'São Paulo', 'Tokyo'). Returns the top 5 matching locations with their latitude, longitude, country code and state. Use these coordinates with other weather tools.
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.
