It works just fine until I updated to the latest version of cursor

Using mcp inspector, the mcp server also returns correct result.

Could it be a bug?

Me too. ALL mcp tools stopped working about an hour ago.

The agent is unable to send any parameters through to the tools, so all calls fail.

Ran into the same issue - Cursor recognizes MCP servers but can’t actually call a tool

You’re not the only one. This is technically what we agreed to when opting in for early versions.

ME too - I’m on:

Version: 0.48.2 (user setup)  
VSCode Version: 1.96.2

OS: Windows\_NT x64 10.0.26100

By mad co-incidence, I had the devtools tab open, and I had un-blocked the console.log output, so I was able to see that cursor itself suddenly started showing “mcp parse erorrs” over-and-over.

Same here, stopped about an hour ago for me. Using the exact same mcp json file for Visual Studio Code and they all work fine in there.

As an MCP author, this scares the ■■■■ out of me since I didn’t even release an update yet, lmao.

Yeap same here. Happened on today’s update. No more mcp tools. Very sad. ☹  
I’m on early access.

Happened to me yesterday; turns out it was related to my npx/npm configs and not Cursor. It started “randomly” (I hadn’t changed anything related to MCPs or npx).

You will need to completely uninstall and reinstall the MCP packges that use npx. I think I also had to globally install the packages (via npm) but I could be misremembering, try this if a fresh install doesn’t work.

I also changed some of the MCP commands to use uvx (instead of npx), though I don’t think this is necessary after doing the above step.

If this doesn’t fix the issue please reply to my comment and I’ll look through my terminal history to see if I did anything else to fix it.

MCP author here. Confirming that all my users are seeing this as well. Odd that it seems to have started happening without any client-side update required?

Yeah Cursor team will have to look into this as it is likely update related and a very specific error.

Lets give them time to check it out. It has been checked here by MCP authors and users.

Are we all windows users, or does this affect Mac as well?

Yes, me.

Some user posted that they have same on earlier versions so it may be cursor tool call processing.

Same, not using early access.

Cross checked the MCP tool (sequential thinking) if its working on Claude and it does.

Hopefully gets fixed soon
