Cursor

​

Overview

​

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

• Direct add to Cursor
• Cursor settings

Add StackOne MCP configuration to Cursor via this link:

Add to Cursor

This opens Cursor and prompts to install the StackOne MCP Server. Click Install.

1. Open Cursor and navigate to Customize → MCPs.
2. Click New MCP Server to bring up the mcp.json.
3. Add a new entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "StackOne": {
      "url": "https://mcp.stackone.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

You can also manually edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (per project) files as above.

The StackOne MCP Server appears with an Authenticate link.

Approve the browser prompt

Click Authenticate. Cursor opens StackOne in your browser so you can sign in.Sign in, pick the project and the linked accounts the connector should reach, then Authorize.

Walk through the consent screen

1. Sign in to StackOne. If you are already signed in to the dashboard you skip straight to the next step.
2. Check where the connection returns. The line under the client’s logo shows where it goes after you approve. If it names localhost or an app on this device, only continue if you started the connection from that client.
3. Select a project. Select the project you would like to associate the connection with.
4. Select accounts and actions. Existing linked accounts are shown. New accounts can be linked by clicking + Link Account. You can either select the whole account (all actions will be granted) or refine by toggling individual actions.
5. (Optional) Load tools when needed. On by default, and the toggle that puts the connection into Advanced Tool Search. Leave it on for large action sets. Turn it off to hand the agent every selected action up front.
6. Authorize. Completes the connection; you can return to your client.

If you see a sentence where the Load tools when needed toggle should be, an admin has already settled it for the whole project. See project settings.

Verify

Open Customize → MCPs and confirm StackOne shows a green dot, then ask the agent:

What StackOne tools are available?

https://api.stackone.com/mcp?token={session_token}&tool-mode=search_execute

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "StackOne": {
      "url": "https://api.stackone.com/mcp?token={session_token}"
    }
  }
}
