Connect SnitchFeed to Cursor (MCP setup)

Add the SnitchFeed MCP server to Cursor in settings or mcp.json, sign in once, then query mentions and listeners from the editor.

Connect SnitchFeed to Cursor and its agent can read your mentions, listeners and usage while you work. Cursor talks to SnitchFeed through the SnitchFeed MCP server.

Before you start

A SnitchFeed account.
Cursor installed.

Add SnitchFeed to Cursor

Open ~/.cursor/mcp.json and add SnitchFeed:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "SnitchFeed": {
      "url": "https://api.snitchfeed.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

You can also add the same URL from Cursor Settings → MCP.

Reload the window: press Cmd+Shift+P and choose Reload Window.

When Cursor first connects, your browser opens a SnitchFeed sign-in page. Sign in and grant access.

Check that it works

Ask Cursor's agent: "How many keywords am I using in SnitchFeed?" It should answer with your keyword, listener and credit usage.

In SnitchFeed, Integrations → MCP lists Cursor under Connected agents. Click Disconnect there to remove its access.

If something goes wrong

Problem	Fix
SnitchFeed tools don't show up	Reload the window, or turn the server off and on in Cursor Settings → MCP.
Cursor asks you to sign in again	Sign-ins last 30 days. Remove the server and add it again.
A tool returns a plan error	That tool needs a feature your plan doesn't include. The error links to your billing page.
