Install Snipe-IT (unofficial) for Cursor

Cursor reads ~/.cursor/mcp.json. A project can also commit .cursor/mcp.json.

Needs Cursor or VS Code installed on this device. The button opens the app and asks you to confirm before it adds the server.

  1. Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json on macOS, %USERPROFILE%\.cursor\mcp.json on Windows, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json on Linux.

  2. Paste the JSON config below.

  3. Replace placeholder secrets, then restart the client if it does not reload on its own.

~/.cursor/mcp.json
{  "mcpServers": {    "mguttmann-the-real-snipeit-mcp": {      "command": "npx",      "args": [        "-y",        "the-real-snipeit-mcp@0.2.2"      ],      "env": {        "SNIPEIT_API_BASE": "",        "SNIPEIT_API_TOKEN": "YOUR_SNIPEIT_API_TOKEN",        "SNIPEIT_CONFIRM_WRITES": "true",        "SNIPEIT_TIMEOUT_MS": "30000",        "SNIPEIT_LOG_LEVEL": "info",        "SNIPEIT_MAX_RESULT_BYTES": "1048576",        "SNIPEIT_CALL_DEADLINE_MS": "0",        "SNIPEIT_REDACT_PII": "false",        "SNIPEIT_REDACT_SECRETS": "false",        "SNIPEIT_READ_ONLY": "false",        "SNIPEIT_REQUIRE_PREVIEW": "false"      }    }  }}
