Connect the Autype MCP server to Cursor, the AI-first code editor.

​
Configuration via Settings

  1. Open Cursor Settings (Cmd+, on macOS, Ctrl+, on Windows)
  2. Navigate to MCP section
  3. Add a new server with the following configuration:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autype": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.autype.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key from the Dashboard.

​
Project-specific config

Alternatively, create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autype": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.autype.com/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
This allows team members to share the same MCP configuration.
Do not commit API keys to version control. Use environment variables or a team-specific .env file instead.

​
Restart Cursor

After adding the configuration, restart Cursor completely for the changes to take effect.

​
Verify connection

Open the Cursor AI chat and ask:
“What Autype tools are available?”
Cursor should list all available Autype tools.

​
Self-hosted server

If you’re running your own MCP server, change the url: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "autype": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://your-server:8000/mcp/",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
