Connect Cursor to the EdgeComet MCP server ​

You connect Cursor to EdgeComet by adding https://cloud.edgecomet.com/mcp to Cursor's mcp.json file, then signing in to EdgeComet in your browser. The EdgeComet tools then work in the Cursor agent and in the Cursor CLI.

These steps cover the Cursor editor and CLI on your computer, and follow Cursor's documentation. For the shared steps and revoking access, see Connect an AI client to the EdgeComet MCP server.

Before you start ​

  • An EdgeComet account.
  • Cursor, signed in. On Cursor Enterprise, an admin can limit which MCP servers members may use.

Add EdgeComet to Cursor ​

  1. Create or open the configuration file:

    • ~/.cursor/mcp.json in your home folder, for every project.
    • .cursor/mcp.json in a project, for that project only.

  2. Add the server and save:

    json
    {
  "mcpServers": {
    "edgecomet": {
      "url": "https://cloud.edgecomet.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

  3. Open Customize in the Cursor sidebar and find edgecomet among the MCP servers.

  4. Sign in to EdgeComet from the server's entry, or run agent mcp login edgecomet in the Cursor CLI. On the EdgeComet sign-in screen, check the account under Signed in as and press Authorize.

  5. In the agent chat, ask "List my EdgeComet websites."

A project file can go into your repository to share the setup. Each teammate signs in with their own EdgeComet account.

Use EdgeComet in the Cursor CLI ​

The Cursor CLI reads the same mcp.json as the editor:

  • agent mcp list shows the configured servers.
  • agent mcp login edgecomet signs in to EdgeComet.

Approve EdgeComet tools in Cursor ​

Cursor's docs say: "Cursor asks for approval before using MCP tools by default." In Auto-review mode, tools on your allowlist run at once and the others go through Cursor's classifier.

Add the EdgeComet tools you use often to the allowlist. Read-only tools lists the tools that only read.

To use EdgeComet in your repository, add project instructions. See Use EdgeComet MCP with coding agents.

Turn off or remove EdgeComet in Cursor ​

  • Turn it off: in Customize, switch off the toggle next to edgecomet. A disabled server does not load or appear in chat.
  • Remove it: remove the server in Customize, or delete the edgecomet entry from mcp.json.

Then revoke the connection in EdgeComet. See Manage and revoke connections.
