Hey dear maintainers,
What is the roadmap for a broader integration to MCP functionalities?
MCP support in cursor is very limited. As it does not support resources, I am forced to use it with cline:
I wish you guys made it fully functional.
My workaround is to have a bridge mcp server so I do the complex stuff with cline then pass the instructions trough an MCP server so that the agent on cursor can execute.
I believe a well functioning MCP implementation would really make Cursor even better!
And at this point I must say: If it was not for cursor autocomplete, which is the best in the market, I would never pay Cursor.
Cline is better with agents, has better MCP support, I can use the SOTA combination of R1 + Claude for pennies (openRouter + copilot apis) and it is open source + copilot it is just unlimited.
If I wanted more out of mcp servers I would go to Claude Pro…
W1nds0rf (wow this word is not allowed?!) Next (continue) is shipping MCP support on pair with Anthropic.
If a better or ± auto complete appears, I see no reason to pay for cursor.
Better catch up =)
Thanks for the detailed feedback on MCP! You’re right that our MCP implementation is still pretty basic right now - we’re actively working on expanding the functionality in our next release. The team is focused on adding resource support and improving overall MCP capabilities to better match what you’re looking for
For now, your workaround of using a bridge MCP server is actually pretty clever. We’ll definitely take your feedback about wanting more comprehensive MCP support into account as we continue development
You can track our MCP progress and latest updates at Cursor – Model Context Protocol
congrats for adding support to resources for mcp servers. Great achievement!
