FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I start managing my agency via AI?

Subscribe, enter your API credentials (your Personal Access Token from Settings → API integrations, and your Organization ID found in your URL), and you're ready. No code, no SDK, no webhooks — just connect and start asking your agent for budget burn rates.

Can my AI agent flag budgets that are running low?

Yes. Ask your agent to query all active budgets and run an analysis on hours tracked versus hours allocated. The agent reads the budget payloads securely and identifies any project that sits beyond 80% profitability burn rate before you even open a spreadsheet.

What happens when I need to verify timesheets for billing?

Just tell your AI agent to fetch recent time entries. It compiles exactly who logged what task across which services, helping you spot unassigned hours or missing descriptions instantly, saving the operations team hours of manual monthly audits.

Is this capable of helping me track sales metrics?

Absolutely. Ask your agent to list active deals and client companies. In a single prompt, you can see your entire sales pipeline, match deals to recent activities, and prepare for management syncs — perfectly suited for agency owners tracking rapid growth.

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.
