Cursor MCP: setup and configuration

TL;DR

Cursor supports MCP servers through configuration files, with both stdio (local) and Streamable HTTP (remote) transports documented. Additional server configuration can be stored in a project-scoped file in the repository.

Transports

Cursor documents both stdio and Streamable HTTP transports. A local server is launched by Cursor; a remote server is reached over an HTTP URL.

Configuration

Server entries are declared in a Cursor configuration file. Cursor also supports a project-level configuration that can be committed to the repository so teammates share server definitions.
