What is the LiveKit Real-Time Rooms MCP Server?
Connect your AI agents to LiveKit, the open-source framework and cloud platform for real-time voice, video, and AI agent communication. This MCP provides 10 tools to manage the full room lifecycle via the LiveKit Twirp Room Service API.
What you can do
- Room Management — Create, list, and delete real-time voice/video rooms with configurable timeouts and participant limits
- Participant Control — List, inspect, update metadata, and remove participants from active rooms
- Track Moderation — Mute or unmute any published audio/video track for content moderation
- Live Data Messaging — Broadcast data payloads to all participants with reliable or lossy delivery modes
- Room Metadata — Dynamically update room-level metadata visible to all connected clients
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Sign in to LiveKit Cloud (or configure your self-hosted LiveKit server)
- Navigate to your project Settings to find your API Key and API Secret
- Copy your server Host URL (e.g.,
wss://your-project.livekit.cloud) - Enter all three values into the credential fields below
Who is this for?
- AI Agent Developers — programmatically manage voice rooms for conversational AI agents
- Video Platform Builders — automate room provisioning and participant lifecycle
- Live Event Operators — control moderation, muting, and data broadcasts in real-time sessions
- Game Developers — create dynamic voice channels tied to game state and matchmaking

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns LiveKit Real-Time Rooms into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from LiveKit Real-Time Rooms and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment

Frequently asked questions
Can I list all active rooms on my LiveKit server?
Yes! Use the list_rooms tool. It calls the LiveKit RoomService ListRooms endpoint and returns all currently open rooms with their participant count, metadata, and creation time.
How do I mute a participant's microphone?
First use list_participants to get the track SID for the participant's audio track. Then call mute_track with the room name, participant identity, track SID, and muted set to 'true'.
Does this work with self-hosted LiveKit servers?
Yes! Just provide your self-hosted server's URL (e.g., https://livekit.yourserver.com) as the Host URL, along with the API Key and Secret from your server's config.yaml.
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.
