Your agent can retrieve precise definitions, identify parts of speech (nouns, verbs, adjectives), see usage examples, and get concise summaries for encyclopedic topics. Whether you are improving your writing, translating complex texts, or exploring etymology, your agent acts as a dedicated philologist and lexicographer through natural conversation.

Frequently asked questions
Can I get the definition of an obscure word like 'synecdoche'?
Yes! Use the get_word_definition tool with the word 'synecdoche'. It will return the definitions, examples, and the part of speech from Wiktionary.
How do I see the part of speech for a word?
The get_word_definition tool automatically identifies if a word is a noun, verb, adjective, etc., and provides definitions for each relevant part of speech.
Does it provide a summary for general topics?
Yes. Use the get_word_summary tool to retrieve a concise description of a word that also functions as an encyclopedic topic, suitable for quick overviews.
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.
