# Cursor Setup

> Add Slashy MCP to Cursor with a small JSON config.

Cursor reads MCP servers from a JSON config file.

## Setup

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open MCP settings">
    In Cursor, open **Settings → MCP** (or press `Cmd+Shift+J`, then search for "MCP").

  </Step>

  <Step title="Add Slashy to your config">
    Paste this into your `mcp.json` (or the MCP section of `settings.json`):

    ```json theme={null}
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "slashy": {
          "url": "https://slashy.ctrlcenter.ai/mcp"
        }
      }
    }
    ```

    Save the file.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Restart Cursor and approve OAuth">
    Fully quit Cursor (`Cmd+Q`) and reopen it. Cursor will open your browser to the Slashy login page. Sign in and click **Allow**.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify the connection">
    Open the MCP panel in Cursor. **Slashy** should show a green dot. Open a chat and ask *"What Slashy tools are available?"* - the agent will list them.

## What happens after setup

Cursor stores the OAuth token in its secure credential store. The config file holds only the URL - never a secret.
