FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I automatically trigger an RPA task via the AI agent?

Yes! Use the trigger_task tool with the target Robot ID and any required input parameters. Your agent will start the automation job and return the unique Job ID.

How do I check if a robot is currently online and ready?

Use the list_robots tool. It will retrieve all configured robots in your ShadowBot account along with their current status (e.g., Online, Busy, Offline).

Can I retrieve the logs for a completed automation job?

Yes! The get_task_logs tool allows you to fetch the execution details and any output data for a specific Job ID.

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.
