Add Commonlands Optics: M12 Lens and C-Mount Lens Finder + Field-of-View Calculator to Cursor

  1. 01

    Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "optics-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.commonlands.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Cursor.

  2. 03

    select_lens_for_sensor_fov_working_distance is surfaced in the client's prompt or command menu. Unlike a tool, you invoke it deliberately — Cursor will not call it for you.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that Commonlands Optics: M12 Lens and C-Mount Lens Finder + Field-of-View Calculator is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.

Use .cursor/mcp.json in a project root instead to scope it to that project. Cursor merges both. Cursor docs

Same prompt, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 24 September 2026. A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
