MiniMax-MCP shows no tools available in Cursor on macOS
I'm using MiniMax-MCP with Cursor on macOS and the tools list is empty, with no error message shown. Is this a known problem, and how was it resolved?

This issue was closed as completed. A user on macOS with Cursor reported the same "No tools available" symptom, and after a maintainer asked for more details, the reporter replied that the tools were available now. No config change, CLI flag, or version was mentioned, so there is no documented fix in the thread.
If you hit the same symptom, the practical takeaway from the thread is that it resolved itself without a code change. General advice: make sure the MiniMax-MCP server process is actually running, then refresh or restart Cursor's MCP connection. In Cursor, that usually means checking the MCP panel, restarting Cursor, or reconnecting the server. If the tools still don't appear, look at Cursor's MCP logs for the real error, since the empty list is usually a symptom rather than the root cause.
Did this work for you?
