Connect Cursor

Choose another client
  1. Sign in or create a free account — we'll bring you back to this Cursor guide.
  2. Follow the Cursor connection steps below. Use the authentication method in this guide; OAuth does not need an API key.

  3. Enable Equibles in your AI conversation, then try:

    Using Equibles, who are NVIDIA's top institutional holders? Include the reporting period and source links.

  4. Confirm your AI shows an Equibles tool call and an answer with sources, not a connection or quota error.

    Troubleshoot a missing or failed request

Cursor connects to the Equibles MCP server in one click and signs you in over OAuth, so there is no key to manage. An API key in mcp.json also works.

1. Install Cursor

Download the editor from cursor.com and sign in.

2. Add the Equibles server

Click to install the server and sign in over OAuth:

Add to Cursor

Prefer an API key? Create one at /dashboard/apikeys (it starts with eq_ and is shown once), then add Equibles to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "equibles": {
      "url": "https://mcp.equibles.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer eq_your_api_key" }
    }
  }
}

For a single project instead of every project, put the same JSON in .cursor/mcp.json at the project root. You can also install and manage MCP servers from Cursor's Customize page in the sidebar.

3. Test it

Open Cursor's chat (Agent mode) and ask any of these, and it should call an Equibles tool. Name Equibles in the prompt, "using Equibles, ...", or the model may answer from memory or from a web search instead of the sourced data:

› Using Equibles, compare NVDA's latest earnings call with the previous quarter. Build a management accountability scorecard showing what was promised, delivered, missed, or is too early to judge; compare prior guidance with filed results; flag achievements that exceeded or were not foreshadowed by management's prior outlook; explain changes in tone and priorities; and cite every conclusion. Earnings
› Who are NVIDIA's top institutional holders this quarter? 13F
› Summarize Microsoft's most recent earnings call. Earnings

Troubleshooting

Connected but requests fail? See shared connection troubleshooting for OAuth sign-in and API-key errors. Keep the setup URL above if your connection works.

Server not appearing?

Fully restart Cursor after editing mcp.json, then open Cursor's Customize page and check Equibles is listed and enabled.

Model answers without Equibles data?

It answered from memory or from a web search. Use Agent mode and start the prompt with "using Equibles, ..." so it calls the tools.

401 / access denied?

Installed with Add to Cursor? Remove Equibles on Cursor's Customize page, click Add to Cursor above again, and complete the Equibles sign-in. Using an API key? Put the full key in the Authorization header: the one you copied when you created it, not the shortened prefix the dashboard lists later. If you no longer have it, create a new one at /dashboard/apikeys. If you're over your daily limit, see Plans & limits.
