Cursor
Cursor supports remote MCP servers through mcp.json.
Choose a config location
Use one of these locations:
~/.cursor/mcp.jsonfor a global setup.cursor/mcp.jsonin a project for a project-specific setup
Add the UserJot server
Add this configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"userjot": {
"url": "https://api.userjot.com/v1/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer ${env:USERJOT_API_TOKEN}"
}
}
}
}Set your token
Set USERJOT_API_TOKEN in your shell or environment before launching Cursor.
Using an environment variable is better than hardcoding the token directly into
mcp.json.
Restart and verify
Restart Cursor after updating the config, then open an agent chat and confirm
the userjot MCP server appears in the available tools list.
If the server does not appear, check:
- the JSON is valid
- the file is in the correct location
- the environment variable is available to Cursor
- the token has not been revoked
