# Cursor

Connect Nichefire MCP to Cursor to access trend research and your organization’s saved trend intelligence directly within the editor.

### Configuration

Add Nichefire as a remote MCP server in Cursor's `mcp.json` — project `.cursor/mcp.json` or global `~/.cursor/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nichefire": {
      "url": "<MCP_URL>",
      "headers": { "x-api-key": "<YOUR_API_KEY>" }
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor also supports OAuth for remote MCP servers — omit the `headers` block and Cursor will prompt you to sign in instead.

> A project-level `.cursor/mcp.json` is usually committed to source control, so prefer the global config, or OAuth, rather than putting your API key in a file your team shares.
