Frequently asked questions
Can this MCP server book rides automatically?
This MCP server provides price estimates, time estimates, product availability, and trip history. Direct ride booking requires additional Uber API permissions (Requests API) available only to approved enterprise partners. Use this server for planning and comparison workflows.
What Uber API permissions do I need?
You need a Server Token from the Uber Developer Portal with access to: Products, Price Estimates, Time Estimates, History, User Profile, and Places endpoints. These are available in the standard developer tier without special approval.
Does this work with Uber Eats deliveries?
This MCP server focuses on Uber ride-sharing products (UberX, Black, Comfort, etc.). For Uber Eats merchant/delivery operations, a separate integration would be needed. Contact Uber for Eats API access.
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.
