Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the AppID of a game using only its name?
Yes! Use the search_all_steam_apps tool. Your agent will scan the Steam database and return matching AppIDs, which are required for all other technical tools.
Is it possible to monitor the live player count for a new game like Deadlock?
Absolutely. The get_current_player_count tool provides real-time data from Steam servers, allowing you to quantify the hype and player base of any specific title at any moment.
How do I find a user's SteamID64 if I only have their profile URL?
Use the resolve_vanity_url tool with the custom part of the URL. The agent will return the unique 64-bit identifier required for all user-specific statistical queries.
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.
