Connect to Cursor

Before you start

Sign in to Lodestar (https://app.getlodestar.ai) with a Plus-or-higher plan. Open Settings → Integrations → MCP Server and copy your connector URL — it should match:

https://api.getlodestar.ai/mcp/v1

Cursor MCP settings (UI)

In Cursor, open Settings → MCP (or Features → MCP) and add a new remote server. Paste your connector URL from Lodestar (https://app.getlodestar.ai/settings?tab=integrations):

• Server type: URL / remote HTTP (not stdio)
• Authentication: OAuth — Cursor starts the flow when you connect
• Requires Plus plan or higher for external MCP access

https://api.getlodestar.ai/mcp/v1

Project MCP config (copy-paste)

Alternatively, add Lodestar to your project MCP config at `.cursor/mcp.json` (create the file if it does not exist). Use the same connector URL as in Settings → Integrations. On first connect, Cursor opens a browser for Lodestar sign-in and consent.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lodestar": {
      "url": "https://api.getlodestar.ai/mcp/v1"
    }
  }
}

Sign in and approve

After saving the server, enable it and click Connect (or reload the MCP panel). Cursor opens your browser to Lodestar — sign in, review the requested scopes, and click Allow access.

Lodestar shows a branded confirmation, then hands off to Cursor's local callback. When that completes, return to Cursor; Lodestar tools should appear in the MCP tool list.

Verifying the connection

In Cursor chat or Agent mode, ask: "What are my open action items?" The assistant should call Lodestar MCP tools and return data from your workspace.

If tools are missing, confirm the connector URL matches https://api.getlodestar.ai/mcp/v1 and that your plan includes external MCP access.
