Frequently asked questions
Can I lookup a US zip code and get its coordinates?
Yes! Use the lookup_postcode tool with the country 'US' and the zip code. It will return the city, state, and coordinates for that location.
Which countries are supported by Zippopotam.us?
Zippopotam.us supports over 60 countries, including the US, Canada, Great Britain, Brazil, France, Germany, and many others. You can use the standard 2-letter ISO country codes.
Can I find all zip codes for a specific city?
Yes! Use the lookup_city tool with the country code, state, and city name. It will return a list of all postal codes associated with that urban area.
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
