SSE MCP registered via `mcp.json` is disabled by default

Bug Reports

Hi,
I’m building an extension that automatically configures and SSE MCP for the user by adding it to mcp.json.
When I do this, the server starts off disabled. Is this desired behaviour? And if it is, is there a way to enable it programatically?

Thanks :slight_smile:

@MaxKless were you able to solve this issue?

Nope, it’s still this way - seems like an intended limitation by Cursor. Maybe something around security?
I’m really hoping for more control over MCP servers via the extension API but so far no response from the cursor team :confused:
I mentioned it here too, let’s see

Sounds like the good way to me, to add it disabled
