Frequently asked questions
Where does the Cursor MCP config go?
Cursor reads ~/.cursor/mcp.json on startup. Add the webclaw entry there, then restart Cursor. The tools will show up in the MCP panel.
Can I use webclaw and other MCP servers at the same time?
Yes. MCP servers compose. Add multiple entries under mcpServers and Cursor will expose tools from all of them to the agent.
