Overview

Cursor is an AI code editor with native MCP support. It connects to remote Streamable HTTP servers directly, runs the OAuth flow itself, and needs no wrapper package.

Prerequisites

  • A StackOne project you are a member of.
  • A connector profile in the project for each provider the client should reach, with the actions you want exposed enabled.
  • (Optional) A linked account for each provider. Accounts can also be linked during the consent flow.

Setup

1

Add the server to Cursor

Add StackOne to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (per project):
You can also use Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server.
2

Approve the browser prompt

Cursor opens StackOne in your browser as soon as the server is added.Sign in, pick the project and the linked accounts the connector should reach, then Authorize.
3

Verify

Open Settings → MCP and confirm StackOne shows a green dot, then ask the agent:
To change which accounts or actions Cursor can reach, re-run the flow. To revoke it, use Connected Apps in the StackOne dashboard.
A session token URL carries its own credential, so it covers the cases OAuth can’t: a shared server, a scheduled job, or anywhere nobody is present to approve a consent screen.Generate one from Connectors, open a connector, then Use in Agent. Pick a linked account, set the expiry (one year by default), and copy the URL:
One URL covers one linked account, and anyone holding it has that access until it expires, so treat it like a password. See Choosing a connection method for the comparison with OAuth.There is no consent screen to set Advanced Tool Search on, so add the tool-mode query parameter instead:
Put the token URL in the same config field:
For API-key auth instead, see Authentication & Security.

Optimize and secure

With your agent connected, use StackOne’s platform features to optimize performance and secure every call.

Advanced Tool Search

Reduce context and save tokens.

Deep Query

Search synced records for a fraction of the tokens.

Defender

Block prompt injections before they reach your agent.
