MCP

Give your agent Cursor tools

Every Cursor action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's Cursor account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

Pipedream Connect

// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "cursor",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// e.g. run Add Followup to Agent:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "cursor-add-followup-to-agent",
  arguments: {
    agentId: "Agent ID",
    prompt: "Prompt",
  },
})

# access_token: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide

        # e.g. run Add Followup to Agent:
        result = await session.call_tool("cursor-add-followup-to-agent", {

API PROXY

Call the Cursor API directly

For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the Cursor API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.

Pipedream Connect

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://api.cursor.com/v0/agents",
})

// Any allowed Cursor endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.

# The path segment is the target URL, URL-safe base64 encoded:
# https://api.cursor.com/v0/agents

curl "https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{project_id}/proxy/aHR0cHM6Ly9hcGkuY3Vyc29yLmNvbS92MC9hZ2VudHM?external_user_id={external_user_id}&account_id=apn_xxxxxxx" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -H "x-pd-environment: production"

SDK

Run Cursor actions from your backend

Connect a user's Cursor account once, then run Add Followup to Agent on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

Pipedream Connect

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "cursor-add-followup-to-agent",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    cursor: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    agentId: "Agent ID",
    prompt: "Prompt",
  },
})

from pipedream import Pipedream

pd = Pipedream(
    client_id="{oauth_client_id}",
    client_secret="{oauth_client_secret}",
    project_id="{project_id}",
    project_environment="production",
)

result = pd.actions.run(
    id="cursor-add-followup-to-agent",
    external_user_id="{external_user_id}",  # any stable ID for this user in your system
    configured_props={
        "cursor": {"authProvisionId": "apn_xxxxxxx"},
        "agentId": "Agent ID",
        "prompt": "Prompt",
    },
)

curl -X POST https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{project_id}/actions/run \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-PD-Environment: production" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -d '{
    "external_user_id": "{external_user_id}",
    "id": "cursor-add-followup-to-agent",
    "configured_props": {
      "cursor": { "authProvisionId": "apn_xxxxxxx" },
      "agentId": "Agent ID",
      "prompt": "Prompt"
    }
  }'
