What You'll Need

• Cursor IDE installed
• A Kick account with access to at least one workspace

Tip: Log in to your Kick account in your browser before starting. This makes the authorization step faster.

Connect your account

Cursor supports remote MCP servers through its Tools & MCP settings.

Step 1: Open MCP Settings

1. Open Cursor Settings
2. Go to Tools & MCP
3. Click Add new MCP server

Step 2: Configure the Kick Server

1. Copy and paste the code below:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kick-mcp": {
      "url": "https://use.kick.co/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer {YOUR_PAT}"
      }
    }
  }
}

1. Replace {YOUR_PAT} with the token you issued from Kick's Connectors page
2. Click Save (cmd+s)

Step 3: Verify the Connection

1. Check that Kick appears as connected in the MCP tools list under Cursor Settings

2. In a Cursor conversation, ask:

List the Kick tools you can use and confirm the active workspace.

Cursor should respond with available tools (like transactions_query, reports_query, context_browse) and your active workspace name.

Authentication Options

Cursor supports two authentication methods for Kick MCP:

OAuth (Recommended)

Automatically redirects you to authorize Kick access through your browser. Choose this if your firm uses standard Kick login.

Bearer Token

Uses a personal access token generated in Kick. Choose this if your firm requires token-based authentication or you need more granular access control.

To use bearer token authentication:

1. Generate a personal access token in Kick (Settings → API)
2. Copy the token
3. In Cursor's MCP server settings, paste the token in the authentication field

Troubleshooting

Kick Not Appearing in Tools List

The server configuration didn't load successfully.

1. Go back to Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP
2. Verify the MCP server URL is correct: https://use.kick.co/mcp
3. Save the configuration again
4. Restart Cursor

Authorization Failed

The authentication didn't complete successfully.

1. Check that you're logged in to your Kick account
2. Try disconnecting and reconnecting the server
3. If using bearer token, verify the token is still valid in Kick settings

Wrong Workspace Showing

Your Kick account has access to multiple workspaces. Tell Cursor which workspace you want to use:

Please switch to the [workspace name] workspace.

Data Privacy and Security

• Your data stays in Kick: Cursor requests data through the MCP connection but doesn't store your Kick data permanently
• Workspace permissions apply: Cursor can only access workspaces you already have permission to view in Kick
• You control access: You can disconnect Kick at any time from the Tools & MCP settings
• Confirmation required for changes: Write operations require your explicit approval before execution

Next Steps

Now that you're connected:

1. Try a sample query: "List my workspaces" or "What tools can you use?"
2. Explore reports by asking Cursor to generate financial reports for your clients
3. Check out the Kick MCP Use Case Library for advanced use cases
