Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically log hours for a specific project just by providing the project ID and duration?
Yes! Use the log_hours tool. Provide the Project ID, start time, end time, and a description, and your agent will register the work log in Simplicate instantly.
How do I check the current status of a sales opportunity?
Simply ask the agent to run the get_sales_details action with the Sale ID. It will retrieve the detailed metadata, including the current stage in your pipeline.
How do I find my Simplicate API credentials and Domain Prefix?
Log in to your Simplicate account, navigate to Settings > General > API, and you will find your Authentication Key and Secret. Your Domain Prefix is the first part of your Simplicate URL (e.g., 'prefix'.simplicate.nl).
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.
