Cursor Adds MCP Apps Bringing Interactive UIs Into Agent Conversations

Cursor

Mar 3, 2026 · Updated Apr 25, 2026

Cursor 2.6 adds MCP Apps support, letting agents render interactive UIs like charts, diagrams, and whiteboards directly inside your conversation. Teams and Enterprise users can also create private plugin marketplaces to share and govern internal plugins centrally.

Cursor 2.6 introduces MCP Apps — support for interactive user interfaces rendered by Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers directly inside agent chats. Charts from Amplitude, diagrams from Figma, and whiteboards from tldraw are among the supported integrations. Agents now present visual, interactive output alongside text rather than text-only responses.

This brings a new dimension to the coding agent workflow — instead of switching context to external tools to view dashboards or diagrams, information surfaces inline. Having MCP Apps inside the editor signals that Cursor is positioning itself as a full development environment, deepening integration with the broader AI tooling ecosystem.

On Teams and Enterprise plans, admins can create team marketplaces to distribute private plugins internally with central governance and access controls. To try MCP Apps, connect a supported MCP server from the Cursor marketplace and interact with it in an agent conversation.
