Gyst MCP

Standalone Cursor MCP server for Gyst — list and update clients, projects, and tickets from your editor.

Quick start

  1. Generate a token in Gyst → Settings → Cursor MCP.

  2. Clone and build this repo:

    git clone https://github.com/NathanHartkopf/gyst-mcp.git
    cd gyst-mcp
    npm install && npm run build
  3. Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "gyst": {
          "command": "node",
          "args": ["/absolute/path/to/gyst-mcp/dist/index.js"],
          "env": {
            "GYST_API_URL": "https://gyst.nathanh.app",
            "GYST_API_TOKEN": "gyst_your_token_here",
            "GYST_WORKSPACE": "/absolute/path/to/your/repo"
          }
        }
      }
    }
    • GYST_API_TOKEN — personal token from Gyst Settings (scopes access to your account only)

    • GYST_API_URL — your Gyst deployment URL (defaults to production if omitted in code)

    • GYST_WORKSPACE — optional; helps get_projects_for_current_repo when Cursor does not expose workspace roots

  4. Restart Cursor to load the MCP server.

Legacy direct-KV mode

For local development against Vercel KV directly (not recommended for end users):

vercel env pull .env.mcp --environment=production --yes

Configure with GYST_ENV_FILE, KV_REST_API_URL, KV_REST_API_TOKEN, and ADMIN_EMAIL instead of GYST_API_TOKEN.
