I have followed the MCP server setup instructions, and tried connecting the started server to Cursor. However, the connection is stuck in “Loading tools” as can be seen in the screenshot. I need a way forward!

 

 

Hey ​@Ugonna Okoli, thanks for reaching out! I’ve reached out internally to the teams for help and they’ve provided the following info:

 

It shows "Loading tools" when it can't connect to the MCP server - i.e. you would see the same if you hadn't started the server.

  1. Make sure the MCP server is enabled in the desktop app (you can confirm this by seeing Invalid session Id if you open http://127.0.0.1:3845/mcp in your browser).
  2. Check if you’re doing remote development - if you are, you need to forward port 3845.

 

Please let me know if this helps, happy to help out further! 


You may have not enabled the local MCP server yet.
