Cursor

Through Settings

1. Open Settings → Tools & MCP.
2. Add a new MCP server.
3. Use https://api.usepalim.com/mcp as the URL.
4. Complete the Palim sign-in flow in your browser.

Through mcp.json

Add the server to ~/.cursor/mcp.json or the project-level .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "palim": {
      "url": "https://api.usepalim.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor starts the OAuth flow on the first connection attempt. This flow does not require an API key.

Personalize the behavior

Store the short Palim base rule as a personal or project-scoped Cursor Rule. If your repository already uses AGENTS.md, the project-specific rule can also live there. See Prompts and personalization for the complete text, reliability test, and optional skill.

Test

Open a new Agent chat and say Palim Help. If Cursor shows “No tools,” disconnect the server in Tools & MCP, reconnect it, and complete the OAuth flow. No additional local config.json file is required.
