Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically add a new subscriber to a specific group by providing their email?
Yes! Use the create_subscriber tool. Provide the email address and an array of Group IDs, and your agent will create the record and assign them instantly.
How do I check the performance statistics for a recently sent campaign?
Simply ask the agent to run the get_campaign_stats action with the Campaign ID. It will retrieve the detailed metadata, including opens, clicks, and bounces.
How do I find my Sender.net API Token?
Log in to your Sender.net dashboard, navigate to Settings > API access tokens, and you will find or generate your unique Bearer token there.
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.
