Add the MCP server in Cursor.
Step 1
Create or open mcp.json
Use .cursor/mcp.json inside a project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json to make gtm.help available everywhere.
Step 2
Add the server entry
Paste this block. Cursor speaks Streamable HTTP, so no local process or npx wrapper is required.
{ "mcpServers": { "gtm-help": { "url": "https://gtm.help/mcp" } } }Step 3
Enable it and sign in
Open Settings → MCP in Cursor, toggle gtm-help on and complete the OAuth sign-in when prompted. The tool count appears next to the server once it connects.
Step 4
Ask it something
Try this in the Cursor chat to confirm the tools are live.
Analyse my landing page with gtm.help and list this week's plays.
First things to ask.
Once Cursor is connected, these prompts confirm everything works.
- “Analyse stripe.com and give me three growth plays.” (free, no plan needed)
- “List my gtm.help workspaces.”
- “What should I ship this week?”
- “Mark the cold outbound play complete and share a recap.”
What Cursor gets access to.
Your agent works inside your own account, and it never posts anything for you.
- Your agent signs in as you. It sees the same businesses, plans and notes you see when you log in — nothing from anyone else's account.
- It can read your plan, move plays, store notes, draft replies and read the numbers your connected tools have synced.
- It can never post, comment or message on Reddit, LinkedIn, X or anywhere else. Drafts are text you copy, edit and post yourself.
- It cannot see your password, your card details or anyone's contact data. Invoices are limited to your own account.
- Disconnect whenever you like: remove the connector in your agent, and the access ends immediately.
The four common snags.
The server connects but shows no tools
The sign-in did not finish. Remove the connector, add it again and complete the gtm.help sign-in window to the end.
The sign-in window keeps reopening
Usually a blocked pop-up or a stale cookie. Allow pop-ups for your agent, sign in at gtm.help in the same browser first, then retry.
It worked yesterday and now says disconnected
The access token expired. Reconnecting takes a few seconds and keeps all your data.
Analysing a site works, but everything else is refused
Site analysis is free; reading and changing your own plan needs an active plan. Start a 7-day trial and the rest unlocks.
Notes for Cursor.
- Windsurf, Continue and other MCP-capable editors use the same URL and a near-identical config block.
- analyze_site is free for any connected account; plan tools need an active Growth or Agency plan.
- If the server shows zero tools, re-run the OAuth sign-in from Settings → MCP.
Run your growth plan from Cursor.
