How to install an MCP server in Cursor

1. Open the server's page above and choose Cursor in the config generator.
2. Fill in any keys it asks for (for example an API token), then copy the JSON.
3. Paste it into ~/.cursor/mcp.json to use it in every project, or .cursor/mcp.json inside one project. If the file already has an mcpServers block, add the new entry inside it.
4. Open Cursor Settings → MCP and check the server shows as enabled, then ask the agent to use it.

A finished file looks like this:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "github": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"],
      "env": { "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "<your token>" }
    }
  }
}
