Whenever I open a new Cursor window or reload an existing one, MCP servers do not start automatically.
In the console, I can see the following error: Timeout waiting for EverythingProvider
However, after I manually restart any of the servers in the MCP Servers section, everything works again

Well, for example, to use GitHub MCP you just need to add MCP Server with type: “comman” and use the following command:
env GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=<TOKEN> npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-github
could you share some screenshots and code of what is not working? happy to take a look!

When I open a new window, MCP servers stay like this until I hit reload button on one of them

In the latest update (0.45.8) I get better error messages and it looks like now I need to reload each server individually.
fix coming out in next patch, sorry about this @jimmyn !

I have tried that, but it’s not working, I tried also brave search and it’s not also working
Failed to locate tools after 0.45.8 upgrade, it works well in 0.45.6 version.
MCP Type is command(stdio) mode.
find one temporary solution for 0.45.8 bug is
start stdio mode mcp with supergateway (GitHub - supercorp-ai/supergateway: Run MCP stdio servers over SSE. )
and then connect to the same in cursor with sse mode
anyway waiting for official solution

Is there a reason for non_programatic method for MCP management?
So this was fun to try:
The bot is a HIDEOUS web dev - and cant draw a hexagon yet…
(this is the MCP that I just thought of today to start - where I have a widget dashboard and Ill have commands to thro widgets at the panel>>>
Lets see how this iteration does:

Yes, I confirm. And, the form with the MCP server settings in not saveable (e.g. edit server cmdline) after an MCP server entry is first created.
