Connect Cursor CLI to Nodes2Cloud
Cursor's agent CLI reads the same mcp.json as the editor.
Cursor CLI talks to the Nodes2Cloud MCP server at https://api.nodes2cloud.com/mcp over Streamable HTTP. Once connected, your agent can read the node catalogue, write and check workflows, and request deploys that wait for your approval by default.
Sign in with your browser (recommended)
No token to copy. When Cursor CLI first connects, your browser opens so you can sign in to Nodes2Cloud and approve access.
Add it to mcp.json
json- Global
~/.cursor/mcp.json - Project
.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"nodes2cloud": {
"url": "https://api.nodes2cloud.com/mcp"
}
}
}If the file already exists, add the nodes2cloud entry under mcpServers and keep what is already there.
Sign in
agent mcp login nodes2cloud
Use a Personal Access Token
For headless machines and CI, or if you would rather not sign in through the browser. Create one in the editor under Integrations → MCP server → Headless & CI Tokens, then Generate Token. Replace n2c_pat_YOUR_TOKEN below with it.
Treat the token like a password and keep it out of source control.
Add it to mcp.json
json- Global
~/.cursor/mcp.json - Project
.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"nodes2cloud": {
"url": "https://api.nodes2cloud.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer n2c_pat_YOUR_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}If the file already exists, add the nodes2cloud entry under mcpServers and keep what is already there.
Or let the installer write it
The n2c-mcp installer writes the same config into Cursor CLI's config file for you. Add --print to see it without writing anything.
npx -y n2c-mcp@latest install --client cursor-cli
Every flag is on the MCP setup page.
