Which integrations are available for this server?

Enables creation and management of cloud agents that work on GitHub repositories, including launching tasks, auto-creating pull requests, monitoring task status, and managing conversations with agents working on codebases.

How do I use Cloud Agent MCP Server?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Cloud Agent MCP Server create a task to fix the login bug in our GitHub repo" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

Cloud Agent MCP Server

MCP server for the Cursor Cloud Agents API. Lets AI assistants create and manage cloud agents that work on GitHub repositories.

Quick Start

# Install
npm install -g cursor-cloud-agent-mcp

# Set your API key
export CURSOR_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

# Use with Cursor (create .cursor/mcp.json)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cursor-cloud-agent": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "cursor-cloud-agent-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CURSOR_API_KEY": "${env:CURSOR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Installation

Install from npm

npm install -g cursor-cloud-agent-mcp

Or install locally in your project:

npm install cursor-cloud-agent-mcp

Install from Source

If you're developing or want to run from source:

# Clone and install dependencies
git clone https://github.com/jxnl/cursor-cloud-agent-mcp
cd cloud-agent-mcp
npm install

# Set your API key
export CURSOR_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

# Run HTTP server
npm start
# Server runs at http://localhost:3000/mcp

# Or run stdio server
npm run start:stdio

Configuration

Environment Variables

Variable	Required	Description
`CURSOR_API_KEY`	Yes	API key from cursor.com/settings
`PORT`	No	Server port for HTTP version only (default: 3000)

Connecting Clients

Cursor

Option 1: Using npm package (Recommended)

After installing via npm, create .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cursor-cloud-agent": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "cursor-cloud-agent-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CURSOR_API_KEY": "${env:CURSOR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or if installed globally:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cursor-cloud-agent": {
      "command": "cursor-cloud-agent-mcp",
      "env": {
        "CURSOR_API_KEY": "${env:CURSOR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Option 2: From source (Development)

If running from source, create .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cursor-cloud-agent": {
      "command": "npm",
      "args": ["run", "start:stdio"],
      "env": {
        "CURSOR_API_KEY": "${env:CURSOR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Option 3: HTTP Server (Alternative)

If you prefer the HTTP version, configure it as:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cursor-cloud-agent": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp",
      "headers": {}
    }
  }
}

Then run npm start in a separate terminal to start the HTTP server.

      "url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Usage

Typical Workflow

1. get_repos          → Get current repo URL and branch
2. create_task       → Launch task with prompt
3. get_task          → Check status (CREATING → RUNNING → FINISHED)
4. add_followup       → (optional) Send more instructions while running
5. get_conversation   → Review what the task did

Advanced

Plan Parallel Tasks

Use /plan-parallel-tasks to break down a project for multiple parallel tasks:

/plan-parallel-tasks
project_description: "Add user authentication with login, signup, and password reset"

This will:

Call get_repos to detect your repository
Break the project into independent tasks
Group tasks into phases (parallel → sequential)
Provide exact prompts for each create_task call

Parallelization Rules

CAN run in parallel:

Tasks that modify completely different files
Tasks that create new files without touching shared files

CANNOT run in parallel:

Tasks that modify the same file
Tasks where one depends on another's output
Tasks that both modify package.json, tsconfig.json, etc.

Server Versions

This package includes two server versions:

HTTP Server (src/server.ts): Runs an Express HTTP server on port 3000. Use for remote connections or when you need HTTP endpoints.
Stdio Server (src/server-stdio.ts): Uses standard input/output. Recommended for local integrations. Better for process-based spawning.

Run with:

HTTP: npm start (default)
Stdio: npm run start:stdio

Development

Health Check

The server exposes a health check endpoint:

curl http://localhost:3000/health

Returns: {"status":"ok","service":"cursor-cloud-agent-mcp","version":"1.0.2"}

Publishing to npm

To publish this package to npm:

# Make sure you're logged in
npm login

# Publish
npm publish

The package will be available as cursor-cloud-agent-mcp on npm.
