Provides a template for creating custom tools for the Cursor IDE using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Hitchcode MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Provides a template for creating custom tools for the Cursor IDE using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
A simple template for creating custom tools for Cursor IDE using Model Context Protocol (MCP). Create your own repository from this template, modify the tools, and connect them to your Cursor IDE.
Once Hitchcode is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Type — Select "sse"URL — Enter http://localhost:8000/sseName — Choose any name (e.g., "my-mcp-server-1")Command — Paste the absolute path to cursor-run-mcp-server.sh that you copied earlier. For example: /Users/kirillmarkin/weaviate-mcp-server/cursor-run-mcp-serveMCP_USER_AGENT — Custom User-Agent for website fetching@smithery/cli on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
You will need one environment variable: MCP_SERVER_HOST. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Hitchcode's toolset — Type, URL, Name and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by jankowtf; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
