Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| delegateA | Delegate a coding task to cursor-agent over ACP. Never shell out to cursor-agent — use this tool only. Auto-approves every permission the agent requests, in any mode and anywhere on disk. Clarifying questions arrive as prose in result — resume with resumeSessionId to answer. Keep model (composer-2.5), fast and effort at their defaults unless the user explicitly asks. See the delegate skill. |
| cancelA | Best-effort cancel of an in-flight delegation by sessionId. session/cancel is advisory — the agent may finish the turn anyway, and the delegate result then carries cancelRequested. Status: cancelled, killed (agent process observed to exit), not-running (turn already ended, still resumable), not-found (id not in this process's recent session history). |
| doctorA | Setup diagnostics: plugin version, MCP client capabilities, cursor-agent launcher resolution. Run when delegation fails or agent.found is false. |

TDQS
Scored across 3 tools
Each tool has a distinct, non-overlapping purpose: delegate for initiating/resuming tasks, cancel for stopping in-flight work, and doctor for diagnostic checks. No ambiguity between tools.
All three tool names are lowercase verbs (delegate, cancel, doctor), following a clean, consistent single-word verb pattern. Perfectly predictable.
With exactly three tools, the server is tightly scoped to its core workflow: delegate, cancel, and diagnose. Every tool earns its place and the count feels appropriate for the purpose.
The tool set covers the full lifecycle of a delegation: starting/resuming (delegate), terminating (cancel), and troubleshooting setup (doctor). No obvious gaps for the stated domain.
