mcp
Connect Cursor
Cursor reads MCP servers from a JSON config. Add Zaai Dev to your mcp.json.
Add the server
- 1Open
~/.cursor/mcp.json(create it if it doesn't exist). For a single project, you can use.cursor/mcp.jsonin the project root instead. - 2Add the
zaai-devblock. If you already have other servers, merge it into the existingmcpServersobject — don't replace it. - 3Swap
zaai_mcp_YOUR_SECRET_HEREfor your token (mint one here) and save.
~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"zaai-dev": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@zaai-dev/mcp"],
"env": {
"ZAAI_API_TOKEN": "zaai_mcp_YOUR_SECRET_HERE"
}
}
}
}Verify
Restart Cursor, open Settings → MCP, and confirm zaai-dev is listed and green. Then ask the agent to run whoami or list your captures.
json gotcha
A trailing comma or missing brace silently disables the whole block. Paste the config through a JSON validator if the server doesn't appear.
