FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I draft a new blog post using chat?

Yes. The create_cms_post tool allows your AI agent to create a new post. You can provide the title and content, and set the status to 'draft'. Once you are ready, you can update it to 'publish' using the same agent.

How do I get the direct URL for an image in my WordPress library?

Use the list_media_attachments tool. Your AI agent will return a list of recently uploaded media files, including their filenames and the direct public source URLs for easy sharing or embedding.

Is it possible to permanently delete a post instead of sending it to Trash?

Yes. When using the delete_cms_post tool, you can set the force parameter to true. This will bypass the WordPress Trash and permanently remove the post from your database.

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.
