What is the Rocket.Chat MCP Server?
Connect your conversational assistant directly to Rocket.Chat, the open-source team communication platform. This integration transforms your AI into an active participant capable of chatting, sending notifications to channels, identifying active users, and auditing chat room data organically within your workspace.
What you can do
- Communicate Actively — Instruct your assistant to post messages into public channels or private direct messages (
chat_post_message,chat_send_message). Need to fix a typo? The AI can seamlessly edit (chat_update_message) or delete previous messages (chat_delete_message). - Explore Channels & Groups — Give your assistant vision over public discussions (
list_public_channels) or private channels you belong to (list_private_groups). You can then extract deep information about specific rooms usingget_channel_info. - Audit Users in the Network — Scan the entire user directory (
list_users) to locate team members and review their roles and connection status directly (get_user_info).
How it works
- Install this module in your MCP connectivity environment.
- Visit your Rocket.Chat profile's 'Personal Access Tokens' panel online to configure and generate an Auth Token.
- Securely enter your
Rocket.Chat URL, your associatedRocket.Chat User ID, and theAuth Tokenin the form below. - Interact naturally with your AI: "Send a welcome message to #general thanking the new members, and then list all of my active direct messages."
Who is this for?
- Team Leaders — Orchestrate team-wide announcements asynchronously or ask the AI to summarize active channels without navigating through clunky chat apps.
- Support Staff — Instantly ping specific users or lookup a colleague's profile and roles using natural language.
- Operations & IT — Empower your conversational agent to act as a responsive chatbot directly inside Rocket.Chat, running commands and pushing logs directly to specific channels.

Frequently asked questions
Can the assistant create new channels or invite new users to the Rocket.Chat workspace?
No. This tool package is primarily focused on organic text-based communication, message manipulation (sending, modifying, deleting), and environment querying (listing what already exists). The generative capability to create workspace structural entities like 'new channels' or provisioning administrative user accounts is deactivated for baseline security in this module.
How does `chat_post_message` differ from `chat_send_message`?
chat_send_message uses a unique alphanumeric Room ID (e.g. 'cxyz123') to target an exact space unambiguously. Meanwhile, chat_post_message is designed to be human-readable, allowing your assistant to route messages to named destinations like '#general', '#dev-team', or directly to a user like '@johndoe'.
Can the AI edit or delete messages sent by other users?
Only if the authenticated account has the required admin or moderator permissions in the target channel. The AI inherits the same role-based restrictions as the user whose token is configured.
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.
