Cursor Ouro Tools hookbox_read_inbox

How to: Cursor Ouro Tools hookbox_read_inbox

client:Cursor transport:streamable-http tool:hookbox_read_inbox

Add Ouro Tools to Cursor

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ouro-tools": {
      "url": "https://ouro.tools/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Cursor.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Ouro Tools'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.
