🚀 Getting Started 2. Installation

3. Build the Server

4. Adding to Cursor This project is designed to be used as an MCP server in Cursor. Here's how to set it up:

5. Open Cursor

6. Go to Cursor Settings > Features > MCP

7. Click + Add New MCP Server

8. Fill out the form:

   • Name: Workato MCP Server

   • Type: stdio

   • Command: node /path/to/your/project/dist/server.js

   • Environment Variables:

     • Click "Add Environment Variable"

     • Name: WORKATO_API_TOKEN

     • Value: your_token_here

📘 Pro Tip: Use the full path to your project's built server.js file.

Alternative Configuration: You can also configure the MCP server using a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project:

Using with Claude Desktop: If you're using Claude Desktop instead of Cursor, you can configure the MCP server by editing the Claude desktop configuration:

1. Open or create the configuration file:

   # On macOS ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json # On Windows %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json # On Linux ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add your MCP server configuration:

   { "mcp_servers": { "workato-tools": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/your/project/dist/server.js"], "env": { "WORKATO_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here" } } } }

3. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect

This method allows you to:

• Version control your MCP configuration

• Include environment variables directly in the config

• Share the same configuration across team members (excluding sensitive values)

• Automatically load the server when opening the project in Cursor
