Connect Cursor

Cursor is a strong fit for Cozy Registry because it usually has access to your local project files.

One-click install

Cursor connects with Static OAuth (it still needs a client id and, when configured, a client secret). You do not have to type those into Cursor by hand: on the home page, open Connect Cursor and use Open in Cursor or copy the Install link. The deeplink embeds the MCP URL and OAuth fields so Cursor can prefill them; finish sign-in inside Cursor.

After the server is connected, use the tools from the MCP panel as usual.

  1. Read the source bundle with get_component_bundle
  2. Generate an install plan with plan_component_install
  3. If the project already uses Cozy Registry, read state with get_project_registry_status
  4. Before any upgrade, generate a plan with plan_component_upgrade
  5. Execute install_component_bundle or upgrade_component_in_project

Why Cursor Works Well

Unlike a remote AI environment, Cursor can often:

  • read the project directory
  • write source files
  • update cozy-registry.lock.json
  • detect local install state before upgrades

That makes it suitable for both planning and execution.
