Hey, thanks for the report. There’s a similar open issue with MCP tools that show in Settings but aren’t available to the agent: [MCP servers are not exposed to agents](https://forum.cursor.com/t/mcp-servers-are-not-exposed-to-agents/143482) and [Showing in Agent chat "No MCP resources available"](https://forum.cursor.com/t/showing-in-agent-chat-no-mcp-resources-available/144231). Need exact diagnostic data: - Request ID right after the error (“…” menu in chat \> Copy Request ID) - Logs: Output `Ctrl+Shift+U` \> “MCP Logs” - Console: Help \> Toggle Developer Tools \> Console (errors when calling the tool) - Terminal results: - `npx playwright run-test-mcp-server` - And for check: `npx -y @playwright/mcp@latest --extension` - Which latest Cursor version worked with these tools for you? Send the data - and I’ll escalate to engineers and link to the current ticket. ---

Thanks for the detailed diagnostics! This matches a known issue we’re tracking. I’ll attach your data, including the Request ID. ---

+1 on this issue. I thought you guys were explicitly substituting the playwright mcp with the cursor IDE browser for a sec 😉. All my other mcp servers are able to be discovered and used except for playwright. ---

I have the same issue with my custom MCP server build with dart [`mcp_server`](https://pub.dev/packages/mcp_server). Server and endpoints are visible in settings, MCP is “green” but I get “No MCP resources available” in Agent. I’ve pinpointed that the last Cursor version without this issue is 2.0.77. ---

What I had to do was rollback to Cursor 1.7, now I’m using it until the version 2 got a fix on this. ---

Hey there! A lot has changed in 2.5 with MCPs. Please try upgrading. Hopefully the issue is fixed – if not, please raise a new thread.
