## Install

1. Install Node.js 18 or later; Cursor starts the MCP server through `npx`.
2. Create `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project, or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` for every project, with the entry below and your OrcaRouter API key.
3. Open Cursor's MCP settings and check that the orcarouter server is enabled.

## Code

### .cursor/mcp.json

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "orcarouter": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@orcarouter/mcp"],
      "env": { "ORCAROUTER_API_KEY": "your-orcarouter-api-key" }
    }
  }
}
```
