Built-in capabilities (12)
Returns detection locations (GPS coordinates), threat types (weeds, diseases, pests, nutrient deficiencies), severity levels, confidence scores, affected area estimates, and recommended actions. Detections are classified by AI models trained on millions of field images for sub-millimeter accuracy. Essential for early threat identification, targeted scouting, and precision treatment planning. AI agents should use this when users ask "show me all detections in my field", "what threats were detected in field X", or need comprehensive threat analysis before planning field operations.

Get consolidated threat summary and severity assessment for a field
Returns weed locations, estimated coverage area, species classification, growth stage, and herbicide resistance indicators. Essential for targeted spot spraying, herbicide selection, and resistance management. AI agents should use this when users ask "where are the weeds in my field", "what weed species were detected", or need weed-specific analysis for precision herbicide application.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI detect specific weed species in my soybean field from Taranis imagery?
Yes! Use the get_weed_detections tool with your field ID to get AI-detected weed infestations with species-level identification. Returns weed locations, estimated coverage area, species classification, growth stage, and herbicide resistance indicators. For a comprehensive view of all threats (weeds, diseases, pests, nutrients), use get_detections without a type filter.
How do I get scouting recommendations based on the latest flight imagery?
Use the get_scouting_recommendations tool with your field ID. Taranis AI analyzes the latest imagery, detected threats, crop growth stage, and field history to generate specific action items including ground truth verification locations, recommended scouting patterns, treatment suggestions, and priority levels. You can also use get_threats first to see the overall threat severity before reviewing recommendations.
What resolution imagery does Taranis capture and how often are flights conducted?
Taranis captures ultra-high-resolution imagery at sub-millimeter to centimeter level resolution using specialized drone and fixed-wing aircraft. Flight frequency depends on your monitoring plan and crop growth stage — typically every 7-14 days during critical growth periods. Use get_flights to see all flight history for a field, and get_flight_imagery to access specific imagery products (orthomosaics, DSM, NDVI maps) from any flight mission.
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.
