Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Xweather Renewable into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Xweather Renewable and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 12 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
What weather and renewable energy data is available through the Xweather API?
The Xweather API provides: current conditions (temperature, humidity, wind, pressure, solar radiation), forecasts up to 15 days, historical weather observations, solar irradiance data (GHI, DNI, DHI) for PV assessment, wind speed/direction measurements, renewable energy farm power output data for US/Canada sites, weather alerts and advisories, and location search capabilities.
How do I get Xweather API credentials (Client ID and Client Secret)?
Visit https://www.xweather.com/ and sign up for an Xweather Flex subscription. Once your account is provisioned, navigate to your developer dashboard to create an application and obtain your Client ID and Client Secret. These credentials authenticate your API requests and are tied to your subscription plan. The Renewables Add-on is required for energy farm data access.
What location formats are supported for weather queries?
The API accepts multiple location formats: city names (e.g., 'Chicago,IL'), latitude/longitude coordinates (e.g., '41.88,-87.63'), weather station IDs, postal codes, and ICAO airport codes. You can also use the searchPlaces tool to find valid location identifiers or the getClosestStation tool to find the nearest weather station to any coordinates.
How far ahead can the Xweather forecast predict?
Xweather provides detailed weather forecasts up to 15 days ahead. Short-term forecasts (1-7 days) are the most accurate, with gradually decreasing accuracy for longer horizons. The forecast includes temperature, weather conditions, wind, precipitation, and solar radiation data — all essential for renewable energy production planning.
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.
