Cursor developer tools mcp server Prompt/tech_research

How to: Cursor developer tools mcp server tech_research

client:Cursor transport:streamable-http prompt:tech_research

Add developer tools mcp server to Cursor

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "developer-tools-mcp-server": {
      "url": "https://nexgendata-mcp-proxy.steve-corbeil.workers.dev/developer-tools-mcp-server/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Cursor.

  2. 03

    tech_research 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 developer tools mcp server 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.
