Cursor Background agent doesn't call MCP?


I’m using the beta version of the Cursor background agent.
When I open a new window for the background agent, I can access the MCP settings and add the required MCP servers, but they don’t work.
I’d like to know whether this feature isn’t supported yet or if the issue is specific to me.
I’d also like to know if MCP support is planned for the background agent in the future.

If anyone has it working, please let me know how you got it to run.

Ignore that ai’s respond. Because when i call that mcp not in the background agent, it works appropriately.

Hi, while we wait for Cursor team to reply, did you setup the MCP inside the Backround Agent or is it an SSE public URL MCP?

i apply .cursor/mcp.json in my project folder and commit & push. so when i open the background agent, it comes out because this mcp.json file is in my git. but when i opened at first, this mcp doesn’t activate so i activate with toggle button.
