Cursor

​

Overview

​

Before you begin

• A Centaur account that is active with a verified email
• Access to your local Cursor MCP configuration
• The public Cursor OAuth client ID supplied by Centaur for the environment you are connecting to

https://mcp.centaur.io/mcp

​

Set up Cursor

1. Add the following entry to ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Preserve your other servers and replace <CENTAUR_CURSOR_CLIENT_ID> with the public client ID:
   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "centaur": {
         "url": "https://mcp.centaur.io/mcp",
         "auth": {
           "CLIENT_ID": "<CENTAUR_CURSOR_CLIENT_ID>",
           "scopes": [
             "events.read",
             "messages.read",
             "feed.read",
             "positions.read",
             "directory.read",
             "stats.read",
             "summaries.read",
             "offline_access"
           ]
         }
       }
     }
   }
   
2. Restart Cursor.
3. Connect to Centaur in Cursor MCP settings. The client ID identifies Cursor; it is public and does not replace your sign-in. No client secret or API key is needed.
4. If Cursor prompts for sign-in, continue in the browser and approve the Centaur access request.

​

Verify the integration

Use Centaur to call list_events with limit 5.

Troubleshooting

• If centaur does not appear in Cursor, restart the app after updating mcp.json.
• If the OAuth browser flow does not appear or does not complete, check the client ID and reconnect. A client ID from another environment will not work.
