Frequently asked questions
Can I see the history of actions and movements for a specific legislative proposal?
Yes! Use the get_materia_movimentacoes tool with the Proposal ID (CodigoMateria). It will return the full chronological list of actions taken on that bill.
How do I find out which senators are currently on leave?
Simply run the list_senadores_afastados tool. It retrieves the list of Brazilian senators who are currently not in active office due to leave.
Is it possible to check the historical positions held by a senator?
Yes, use the get_senador_cargos tool with the Senator ID. It provides a detailed list of current and past positions held within the Senate and other bodies.
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.
