arctl configure cursor

Page as Markdown

Configure Cursor AI Editor.

Write the MCP server entry that Cursor AI Editor reads, so it can reach this registry.

The entry is merged into the client’s existing configuration file rather than replacing it, and the file is created if it does not exist yet.

The endpoint defaults to http://localhost:21212/mcp. Override the port with --port, or the whole URL with --url. Clients that support OAuth authenticate interactively; for static or direct access, pass --token-env with the name of the environment variable holding the MCP bearer token. Only that name is written into the config, never the token itself.

Usage

arctl configure cursor [flags]

Command-specific flags

    --port string        Port for the MCP server (default "21212")
    --token-env string   Name of the environment variable holding the MCP bearer token for static/direct access (e.g. ARCTL_MCP_TOKEN); written into the config as a reference the client expands at connect time. Clients that support OAuth can authenticate interactively instead, without this flag
    --url string         Custom MCP server URL (default: http://localhost:21212/mcp)

Global flags

-h, --help                    Display help information for the command.
    --registry-token string   Registry bearer token (defaults to value of ARCTL_API_TOKEN env var)
    --registry-url string     Registry URL (overrides ARCTL_API_BASE_URL env var; defaults to http://localhost:12121)
