# Cursor

Connect AllMCP to Cursor for use in AI agent mode.

## Setup

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Locate the config file

Cursor supports both global and project-level MCP config:

| Scope                 | Path                                    |
| --------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
| Global (all projects) | `~/.cursor/mcp.json`                    |
| Project-local         | `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project root |

{% hint style="info" %}
**Project-local config takes precedence over global.**
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Add the `allmcp` block

{% code title="mcp.json" %}

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "allmcp": {
      "url": "https://go.allmcp.co/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Apply the config

Reload the Cursor window:

```
Ctrl+Shift+P → Developer: Reload Window
```

Or close and reopen Cursor.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Verify it's working

Open the Cursor agent panel (`Ctrl+L` → switch to Agent mode) and type:

```
List available AllMCP integrations
```

{% hint style="success" %}
The agent will return the list of integrations you can connect.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

***

## Per-project scoping

If different projects connect to different users' accounts, use a project-level `.cursor/mcp.json` with a `user_id`:

{% code title=".cursor/mcp.json" %}

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "allmcp": {
      "url": "https://go.allmcp.co/mcp/?user_id=project-owner-uuid",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

{% endcode %}

{% hint style="warning" icon="lock" %}
**Add `.cursor/mcp.json` to your `.gitignore`** if it contains a personal API key.
{% endhint %}
