Connect Cursor

Add the Siglata MCP server to Cursor with a two-line mcp.json entry and a browser sign-in.

Cursor reads MCP servers from a small JSON file. You add the Siglata address there, then sign in once in your browser. Cursor is a proven (v1) client.

Before You Start

Steps

  1. Decide where the server should be available. Use .cursor/mcp.json inside a project for that project alone. Use ~/.cursor/mcp.json for every project you open.

  2. Create the file if it does not exist, and put this in it.

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "siglata": {
          "url": "https://www.siglata.com/v1/mcp"
        }
      }
    }

    The file already has an mcpServers block if you use other servers. In that case, add the "siglata" entry beside them and leave the rest alone.

  3. Save the file.

  4. Open Cursor Settings and go to MCP. The siglata server is listed there.

  5. Click Login next to siglata. Cursor opens your browser on Siglata.

  6. Sign in with your email magic link if you are not signed in already.

  7. Pick the organization this connection may reach, then approve the permissions Cursor asked for.

  8. Return to Cursor. The browser tab can be closed.

You’re Done When

  • Cursor Settings then MCP shows siglata as enabled, with no login prompt left.
  • The server lists exactly two tools, execute and search.
  • You open the chat in agent mode, ask it to list the files in your Siglata organization, and it answers with your files.

Troubleshooting

  • The browser never opened. Click Login again. A pop-up blocker or a second browser profile can swallow the first attempt.
  • The server still asks for login after you approved. Use the reload control next to siglata in MCP settings. Cursor picks the new token up on reload.
  • The tool list is empty. Check that the entry uses "url" and not "command", and that the JSON parses. Then open the Output panel and select MCP Logs to read the error.
  • The agent reads the wrong organization. A connection is bound to the organization you picked while authorizing. Add a second entry under another name, such as "siglata-acme", and pick the other organization when it asks.
  • Calls fail with 401. Your grant ended, because the session was revoked or your membership changed. Click Login again to authorize a fresh grant.

What the Agent Can Do

Your agent can list files and folders, upload new ones, download and read them, rename them, move them, send them to the trash, and restore them within 30 days. It can also read your organization’s profile, list members, invite people, and change roles. It never reaches past the organization you picked, and never past the permissions you approved.

The full operation list, with the permission each one needs, is in MCP.

For Agents

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "siglata": {
      "url": "https://www.siglata.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  • Transport is Streamable HTTP at https://www.siglata.com/v1/mcp. Authorization is OAuth 2.0, and Cursor registers its client dynamically.
  • tools/list returns exactly two tools, execute and search. There is no context tool.
  • Management operations are CallScript functions called inside an execute script, not MCP tools. Call search to list the operations this grant may call.
  • Call principal_get inside an execute script to read the bound organizationId, plus userId, role, and scopes.
  • Other clients: Connect.
