01Configuration

  "mcpServers": {
    "modelrunner": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

Remote server. This uses the mcp-remote bridge so Cursor can reach the hosted endpoint. Add it to .cursor/mcp.json.

Make sure Cursor is installed and up to date.
Open .cursor/mcp.json and add the block above (merge into any existing mcpServers).
Provide any required API keys/credentials as environment variables.
