What is the Radar MCP Server?
Integrate Radar with an AI agent to bring enterprise-level location intelligence directly to your workflow. This server allows the AI to perform complex spatial lookups and geographical computations on your behalf.
What you can do
- Geocoding & Reverse Geocoding — Convert readable addresses into exact coordinates (latitude/longitude), or vice versa.
- Route Calculation — Determine distance and driving times between multiple locations, predicting transit metrics efficiently.
- Geofencing & Context — Check whether specific coordinates fall within defined geographical boundaries (e.g., regions, stores, administrative borders).
- IP Geolocation — Locate a user or device strictly based on an IP address.
How it works
- Enable the server integration.
- Add your Radar Publishable API Key.
- Instruct your AI to plan coordinates, route distances, or geofence user locations on demand.
Who is this for?
- Software Engineers — Resolve coordinate bugs, fetch boundary parameters, or quickly verify distance calculations in ongoing backend projects.
- Logistics Planners — Assess routing strategies and times without leaving the IDE workspace.
- Data Analysts — Quickly validate raw IP inputs into actionable regions or postal codes.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Radar into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Radar and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 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
Where do I find my Radar API key?
Log into your Radar dashboard. Under 'Project Settings' or the dedicated API keys section, look for your 'Publishable Key'. This is the standard read-only key used for client integrations and MCP operations.
Should I use the Publishable Key or the Secret Key?
Always use the Publishable Key for this MCP server instance if possible, as the operations (geocoding, routing, lookup) are typically safe read-only spatial actions.
Can it calculate multi-stop routes like a delivery app?
Yes, but indirectly through distance comparisons. The basic routing API fetches times from Point A to Point B. The AI can chain these requests together to establish an estimated schedule contextually in your chat.
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.
