Connect Cursor to Agent Authority

When you finish, every MCP tool call Cursor makes is checked against your policies and recorded in the audit log. Cursor, in the editor and its CLI, reaches your approved tools through one SecureAuth Agent Authority gateway URL, and each developer signs in as themselves.

SetupCopy Anchor Link

1. Add the MCP server. Add the following to .cursor/mcp.json in your project (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global):

   Copy Text

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "secureauth": {
         "url": "https://your-gateway-url/gateway/mcp"
       }
     }
   }

2. Authenticate.

   Copy Text

   agent mcp login secureauth

   Or authenticate via the browser prompt on first MCP tool use in the editor.

   The agent is auto-registered on first connect. Works in both the editor and CLI (agent).

Connecting to just one MCP? To stay under an agent's tool limit, point the URL at a single MCP — /gateway/mcp/{slug} instead of /gateway/mcp. Grab the exact URL from the resource's detail page; see Scope a connection.
