FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I create a Pingdom API Token?

In your Pingdom dashboard (or SolarWinds portal), go to Settings > API Tokens. Click Add API Token, give it a name, and ensure it has the necessary access levels.

Can I see response times for different global regions?

Yes! The list_check_results tool returns data from multiple probe locations, allowing you to see how your site performs from different parts of the world.

Does this support pausing multiple checks at once?

The tools handle checks individually, but you can ask the AI agent to 'Pause all checks related to our API' and it will process them sequentially using their IDs.

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.
