Cursor + MCP

Connect the Eclectic MCP in Cursor

Cursor supports remote MCP servers with OAuth. Install it with one click from this page, or configure it by hand.

01

Install the server

02

Authorize with your account

03

Verify under Tools & MCP

Cursor manages MCP servers under Settings > Tools & MCP. The install link below opens that setting with the Eclectic URL already filled in, so there is no chance of a mistyped address.

After installing, Cursor opens the OAuth flow in your browser and stores the credentials. From then on, the agent can use Eclectic's tools inside your editor.

01

Install the server

Use the one-click install button. Alternatively, open Settings > Tools & MCP > New MCP Server and add the URL manually.

02

Authorize with your account

Cursor opens the Eclectic login in your browser. Finish signing in and return to the editor.

03

Verify under Tools & MCP

Eclectic should appear in the list with its discovered tools and the toggle switched on.

One-click install

Opens Cursor with the server pre-filled. If your browser blocks the link, use the manual steps.

Add to Cursor

Connector URL

Use exactly this address when creating the connector.

https://api.eclecticlabs.com/api/integrations/mcp/eclectic/

What you should see at the end

Eclectic appears as an active server under Settings > Tools & MCP, with its tool catalogue listed underneath.

Recommendations

If your browser blocks the cursor:// link, use the manual mcp.json configuration.

A project-level server lives in .cursor/mcp.json and is shared with anyone who clones the repository; a global one stays on your machine.

If Cursor shows no tools, refresh the server from Tools & MCP to re-read the catalogue.

Official client documentation

Menus change often in these apps. If something does not match what you see on screen, this is the authoritative source.

Cursor

Inside Cursor, having Eclectic connected saves jumping to the dashboard to check how an agent is configured or which contacts match an audience.

The install button is the recommended route: it removes the most common error, which is pasting an incomplete URL.
