Cursor is an AI-powered code editor. You can connect it to TryPost’s MCP server to manage your social media scheduling directly from the editor.

Prerequisites

  • Cursor editor installed
  • A TryPost API key

Setup

1

Create the MCP configuration file

In your project root, create or edit .cursor/mcp.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trypost": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.trypost.it/mcp/trypost",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer tp_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
Replace tp_your_api_key_here with your actual API key from the TryPost dashboard.
2

Restart Cursor

Restart Cursor to load the new MCP configuration.
3

Verify the connection

Open the AI chat panel and ask:
List all my TryPost social accounts

Example prompts

Use Cursor’s AI chat or inline editing to interact with TryPost:
Create a new post for all my connected accounts
Show me all my hashtag groups
What workspace am I connected to?
