Comment ajouter des MCP servers à Cursor

Cursor is an AI code editor built on VS Code. It reads MCP servers from an mcp.json file, either for one project or for every project, and lets you switch each server on or off.

Ajouter un MCP server à Cursor

1Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json, or .cursor/mcp.json in the project, and create it if it does not exist.
2Paste the server under mcpServers, merging with any servers already there.
3Put API keys in the env object of that server.
4Open the Customize page and check that the server's toggle is on; if it shows no tools, open Output and pick MCP Logs.

Exemple : Codebase Memory

~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codebase-memory-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "codebase-memory-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Variables and one-click installs

Config values can use ${env:NAME}, ${userHome} and ${workspaceFolder}, so one mcp.json works on every machine.
Stdio servers can read secrets from an envFile instead of the config.
Servers from the Marketplace come with an "Add to Cursor" button that writes the entry for you.
Besides tools, Cursor uses prompts, resources, roots and elicitation from servers, and supports MCP Apps.

Limites et réglages

Config supports ${env:NAME}, ${userHome} and ${workspaceFolder} interpolation.
envFile works for stdio servers only.
Cursor supports tools, prompts, resources, roots and elicitation from MCP servers.

Quand un serveur ne fonctionne pas dans Cursor

Open the Output panel and pick "MCP Logs" to see connection, auth and crash errors.
Restart Cursor after editing a local server's files.
Check the server's toggle on the Customize page; a switched-off server shows no tools.

Questions sur MCP dans Cursor

How do I add an MCP server to Cursor?

Add an entry under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json for all projects or .cursor/mcp.json for one project, or use an "Add to Cursor" button. HostedMCP server pages give you the JSON.

Does Cursor support remote MCP servers?

Yes, over SSE and Streamable HTTP, with OAuth sign-in for servers that need it.

Can I keep secrets out of mcp.json?

Yes. Reference environment variables with ${env:NAME}, or point a stdio server at an envFile.

Why does a server show no tools?

Check that its toggle is on, then read the MCP Logs output for start-up or authentication errors.
