[ Connect an agent ]

Cursor

Connect AgentCents to Cursor globally or for one project.

Cursor reads MCP servers from ~/.cursor/mcp.json or a project's .cursor/mcp.json, connects on startup, and exposes the tools to its agent.

How it works with AgentCents

The same contract applies: idempotency on writes, free-text categories, and honest pending_review reporting. A project-scoped key can keep one client's expenses visibly separate.

Setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentcents": {
      "url": "https://www.agentcents.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ac_live_YOUR_KEY_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

Restart Cursor or reload the window.

Worth knowing

Use a distinct key per MCP client if you want per-client attribution in Settings → API.

Prefer a guided setup with sign-in, permissions, and a connection test?
