Cursor — manual setup
Most users never see this page. The default path is one command in your IDE chat: say launch this and let your agent run launch-here for you. This page exists only as a fallback when auto-attach can't run (locked-down runtime, custom MCP host, CI environment).
Default path: /install · Manual config below.
1. Get a key
chieflab.io/get-key → one-time delivery URL → copy the clp_dev_ or clp_live_ key.
2. Paste config
Edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json (create if missing):
{
"mcpServers": {
"chieflab": {
"url": "https://api.chieflab.io/api/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer clp_dev_<paste-your-key>"
}
}
}
} 3. Restart Cursor
Fully quit Cursor and reopen. Open chat. Ask: launch this. The agent picks chieflab_launch_product, drafts render inline, you approve in chat.
Troubleshooting
- Tools don't appear: fully quit Cursor (all windows). MCP reload requires a full restart.
- 401 Unauthorized: Bearer token wrong. Re-mint at /get-key.
- 429 Too Many Requests: 60 calls/min per workspace. Wait, then retry.
- 503: server-side. Email hi@chieflab.io.
