Cursor Power Strip Security read_url

How to: Cursor Power Strip Security read_url

client:Cursor transport:streamable-http tool:read_url

Add Power Strip Security to Cursor

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "power-strip-security": {
      "url": "https://api.powerstripsecurity.workers.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Cursor.

  2. 03

    Ask for something read_url does. Cursor lists the server's tools on connect and calls read_url itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Power Strip Security'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

Set these first

Power Strip Security will not start until these are set, so read_url never becomes available.

  • PSS_PRIVATE_KEY
  • PSS_MAX_SPEND_USD

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 11 November 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.
