### UI Mode vs CLI Mode: When to Use Each
| Use Case | UI Mode | CLI Mode |
|----------|---------|----------|
| **Server Development** | Visual interface for interactive testing and debugging during development | Scriptable commands for quick testing and continuous integration; creates feedback loops with AI coding assistants like Cursor for rapid development |
| **Resource Exploration** | Interactive browser with hierarchical navigation and JSON visualization | Programmatic listing and reading for automation and scripting |
| **Tool Testing** | Form-based parameter input with real-time response visualization | Command-line tool execution with JSON output for scripting |
| **Prompt Engineering** | Interactive sampling with streaming responses and visual comparison | Batch processing of prompts with machine-readable output |
| **Debugging** | Request history, visualized errors, and real-time notifications | Direct JSON output for log analysis and integration with other tools |
| **Automation** | N/A | Ideal for CI/CD pipelines, batch processing, and integration with coding assistants |
| **Learning MCP** | Rich visual interface helps new users understand server capabilities | Simplified commands for focused learning of specific endpoints |
