Frequently asked questions
Can I block a fraudulent user through the agent?
Yes! Use the apply_user_decision tool with the user's ID and the appropriate decision ID (like block_user). The action will be applied in Sift immediately.
How do I check the risk score for a specific customer?
Use the get_user_fraud_score tool with the customer's unique ID. Your agent will fetch the latest risk score generated by Sift's machine learning models.
Where do I find my Sift API Key and Account ID?
Log in to your Sift Dashboard and navigate to Settings -> API Keys. You will find your REST API Key and Account ID 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.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
