Frequently asked questions
Can I check how many people finished watching a specific video?
Yes. The get_engagement_statistics tool provides the average percent watched and other deep engagement metrics for any video, allowing you to analyze audience retention through chat.
How do I upload a video to Wistia if I only have a direct URL?
You can use the upload_video_via_url tool. Simply provide the source URL and the target project ID, and Wistia will handle the ingestion and hosting of that video for you.
Is it possible to see the direct download link for my video files?
Absolutely. Using the get_media_details tool, your agent can retrieve full technical properties, including the direct URLs for original files and transcoded versions hosted on Wistia's CDN.
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.
