Get Started

Cursor

1. Open the MCPs panel

Open Customize (from Cursor's sidebar) and select the MCPs filter, then click + New MCP Server.

Cursor's Customize panel, MCPs filter selected, showing a connected server and a "New MCP Server / Add a Custom MCP Server" option

2. Add the server

Cursor reads MCP servers from a config file — either project-scoped or available everywhere:

  • Project-only: .cursor/mcp.json in your project root
  • Global (every project): ~/.cursor/mcp.json in your home directory

Add Kuberns to it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kuberns": {
      "url": "https://mcp.kuberns.cloud/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Save the file — Cursor picks it up automatically.

3. Check its status

Back in the MCPs panel, Kuberns now shows up under Needs Attention.

The Customize MCPs panel showing "kuberns · Needs authentication" with an Authenticate link

Click Authenticate. Your browser opens to Kuberns' consent screen.

Consent screen: "Cursor wants to access your Kuberns account," signed in as an email, listing scopes including Debug Your Application, with Approve and Deny buttons

Click Approve.

Confirmation page: "Authorization complete! You can close this tab and return to Cursor," with a Return to Cursor link

Return to Cursor — the connection is complete.

4. Confirm it worked

Ask Cursor's agent something simple, like "List my Kuberns projects," to confirm it's live.
