Cursor

Host set up for Cursor

Cursor is an AI-powered code editor built as a fork of Visual Studio Code. It enhances the familiar Visual Studio Code experience with conversational AI features that help you write, refactor, and understand code more efficiently.

Getting started

Go to Cursor Settings -> Tools & MCP -> Add Custom MCP.

MCP Panel

Add the following to the config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "umbraco-mcp": {
      "command": "npx", 
      "args": ["@umbraco-cms/mcp-dev@beta"],
      "env": {
        "NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED": "0",
        "UMBRACO_CLIENT_ID": "umbraco-back-office-mcp",
        "UMBRACO_CLIENT_SECRET": "1234567890",
        "UMBRACO_BASE_URL": "https://localhost:12345",
        "UMBRACO_INCLUDE_TOOL_COLLECTIONS": "document,media,document-type,data-type"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace the UMBRACO_CLIENT_ID, UMBRACO_CLIENT_SECRET, and UMBRACO_BASE_URL values with your local connection details.
