Cursor

Get started quickly with these pre-built prompts for common Appwrite integrations:

Connect the Appwrite MCP server to Cursor for deeper integration with the Appwrite API and documentation. It is a remote HTTP server, so there are no additional pre-requisites to install.

Open the Cursor Settings page, head to the MCP tab, and click on the Add new global MCP server button. This will open an mcp.json file in your editor.

Update the mcp.json file to include the Appwrite MCP server:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "appwrite": {
            "url": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/"
        }
    }
}

The server uses OAuth for authentication. After you save the file, click Needs login next to the server in the MCP settings. Your browser opens so you can sign in to your Appwrite account and authorize access.

You can also directly add the MCP server to Cursor using the following link:

Once you save the details, Cursor will connect with the MCP server and load all available tools. You may need to restart Cursor if it is unable to start the MCP server.

Open Cursor Agent and test your MCP integration. You can try out the following example prompts:
