How to: Cursor NASA Image of the Day — space & astronomy photos (nasaiotd) data_session_funding_package
Add NASA Image of the Day — space & astronomy photos (nasaiotd) to Cursor
-
01
Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"data-nasa-photo-space-image-astronomy": {
"url": "https://a2awire.com/mcp/data/nasaiotd-nasa-image-of-the-day-601de3/http"
}
}
}
-
02
Save the file and restart Cursor.
-
03
Ask for something data_session_funding_package does. Cursor lists the server's tools on connect and calls data_session_funding_package itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that NASA Image of the Day — space & astronomy photos (nasaiotd)'s identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.
Use .cursor/mcp.json in a project root instead to scope it to that project. Cursor merges both. Cursor docs
Same tool, other clients
This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what
the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.
Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
