Cursor MCP Setup

This guide shows you how to configure the Sita MCP server in Cursor, the AI-powered code editor.

You must configure the MCP server for each repository you want to work with. Each repository requires its own configuration section with a unique repo ID.

Configuration Steps

Open Settings

In Cursor, click the Settings icon in the top right corner of the application.

Navigate to MCP

Click on “MCP & Integrations” in the settings menu.

Add New Server

Click the “New MCP Server” button to add a custom MCP server.

Paste Configuration

Copy and paste the appropriate configuration based on whether you’re setting up one repository or multiple repositories (see examples below).

Save

Save the configuration. The MCP server will be immediately available in Cursor.

Single Repository Configuration

To configure Sita for a single repository, paste this configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "code-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: YOUR_REPO_ID"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_REPO_ID with your repository ID. The repo id can be copied from repos tab.

Multiple Repository Configuration

To configure multiple repositories, add separate server entries for each:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "frontend-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: frontend-app"
      ]
    },
    "backend-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: backend-api"
      ]
    },
    "mobile-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: mobile-app"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Give each server configuration a descriptive name (like frontend-qna, backend-qna) to easily identify which repository it connects to.

Verification

After adding the configuration, you should see:

Your server name(s) appear in the MCP & Integrations panel
A green indicator showing the server is connected
The codebase-qna tool available when using Cursor’s AI features
