Cursor
MCP SERVER

Use LinkJolt with Cursor

Cursor has native MCP support. Use the one-click install button below, or add the config manually. Once installed, Cursor's chat can read and manage your affiliate program while you code.

Setup
1
Fastest: hosted endpoint (nothing to install)

Cursor supports remote MCP servers. Add the hosted endpoint with your API key header to ~/.cursor/mcp.json and skip the npm install entirely. Keys come from linkjolt.io/merchant/api-keys.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkjolt": {
      "url": "https://www.linkjolt.io/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer lj_pk_your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}
2
Or: one-click local install

Click the "Install in Cursor" button above. Cursor will prompt you to confirm and add the local npm server to your config automatically. Then replace the placeholder API key with yours.

3
Or install manually

Open Cursor Settings (Cmd/Ctrl + ,) → Features → MCP. Click "Add MCP Server" and paste the config below. Alternatively, edit the config file directly at `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (macOS/Linux) or `%USERPROFILE%\.cursor\mcp.json` (Windows).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkjolt": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@linkjolt/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "LINKJOLT_API_KEY": "lj_pk_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
4
Get your API key

Generate a key at linkjolt.io/merchant/api-keys. Replace the placeholder in your config with the real key.

5
Restart Cursor

Quit and relaunch. Open the Cursor chat panel, and the LinkJolt tools will be available alongside your code context.
