ConnectChats in Cursor
Cursor reads MCP servers from an mcp.json file and supports OAuth sign-in for remote servers. Add ConnectChats once and its agent can look up messages while you work, such as the bug report a teammate sent you on WhatsApp.
- Cursor signs in with OAuth and renews the token on its own, so you sign in once.
- You can switch ConnectChats off in Customize without removing it from mcp.json.
- Cloud Agents keep their own sign-in, separate from the desktop app.
- Team admins can limit which MCP servers members can use with an allowlist.
Questions
How do I add ConnectChats to Cursor?
Follow the steps on this page: add ConnectChats to Cursor with the server address https://api.connectchats.com/mcp, sign in, and link a chat app. It takes about two minutes.
Does Cursor see all my messages?
No. Cursor sees only the chats you share in your ConnectChats dashboard, and it reads them only when you ask something that needs them.
Can Cursor send messages for me?
Cursor can save a reply as a draft, and it is sent once you approve it in ConnectChats. You can turn on auto-send for specific chats, and it stays off everywhere else.
Which chat apps work in Cursor?
Every chat app ConnectChats supports, from WhatsApp and Telegram to Slack and Discord. Each one you link appears in Cursor without any extra setup.
Is ConnectChats free in Cursor?
Yes. The free plan links two chat apps and works in every supported AI app. No card needed.
Should I put ConnectChats in the project mcp.json?
Usually not. Your chats are personal, so the global ~/.cursor/mcp.json is the better place. If you commit a project file, teammates still sign in with their own passkey and see only their own chats.
Where do I see whether ConnectChats is connected?
Open Customize in the sidebar. Connection problems show in the Output panel under MCP Logs.
