Frequently asked questions
How do I get my VTEX API credentials?
Log in to your VTEX Admin, go to Account Settings → Application Keys, and create a new App Key. You'll receive an App Key and App Token pair. You also need your Account Name (the subdomain you use to access the VTEX Admin, e.g., 'mystore'). Ensure the key has Catalog and Logistics read/write permissions. No code, no SDK — just connect and go.
Can my agent update stock levels without opening the VTEX Admin?
Yes! Use the 'manage_stock' tool with a SKU ID and the new quantity. Your agent updates the inventory balance in real-time through the VTEX Logistics API — perfect for warehouse teams receiving shipments who need to update stock counts without navigating to the Inventory module.
How does product search work with categories and brands?
The 'search_products' tool supports three search modes: full-text (e.g., 'Nike Running Shoes'), by brand ID (e.g., 'b/1234'), or by category ID (e.g., 'c/5678'). This means your agent can quickly audit all products under a specific brand or explore an entire product category — no manual catalog browsing required.
Can I create new products and manage my entire catalog via AI?
Absolutely. The 'save_product' tool lets your agent create or update products by sending a structured JSON body. Combined with 'get_category' and 'get_brand' for classification, your agent can handle the full product lifecycle — from initial creation to SKU-level stock adjustments — ideal for merchandising teams managing large VTEX catalogs with thousands of products.
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.
