How to: Cursor Submitator client_progress_update
Add Submitator to Cursor
-

"mcp": {
"url": "https://mcp.submitator.com/mcp"
}
}
}-
02
Save the file and restart Cursor.

client_progress_update is surfaced in the client's prompt or command menu. Unlike a tool, you invoke it deliberately — Cursor will not call it for you.

If it does not appear, check that Submitator is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.
Use .cursor/mcp.json in a project root instead to scope it to that project. Cursor merges both. Cursor docs

Same prompt, other clients
Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 11 November 2026.
A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this
is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are
stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
