How to connect the Context Pruner MCP Tool to Cursor

Intelligently ranks and filters file relevance against your active task using keyword overlap. This guide provides the exact configuration required to load the context_pruner tool inside Cursor.

Step 1: Open the configuration file

Locate and open your Cursor configuration file at the following path:

macOS / Linux~/.cursor/mcp.json
Windows%USERPROFILE%\.cursor\mcp.json

Step 2: Add the server config

Copy and paste the following JSON snippet into the file. Save the file and restart Cursor.

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agenticstore": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["agentic-store-mcp", "--tools", "context_pruner"]
    }
  }
}
