Cursor connection

Connect PrivateDAO to Cursor.

Add PrivateDAO with the official Cursor MCP install link, then approve the server in Cursor.

Endpoint

https://agents.privatedao.org/mcp

Transport: streamable-http
Authentication: none for public discovery and free read-only tools.

Security and payment

Never paste a private key into an MCP client. Paid tools return a quote first and require finalized Solana Mainnet USDC payment proof.

No payment made by this guide

Setup

Enter the endpoint in the client's remote MCP/custom server settings.

Select Streamable HTTP when a transport selector is available.

Refresh tools and call verify_basic first.

One-click install

Add PrivateDAO to Cursor

Cursor will open and ask you to approve the MCP server. If the button does not open Cursor, copy the endpoint into Cursor Settings → MCP.

Verify

Run initialize → notifications/initialized → tools/list → safe tools/call. Then try: list PrivateDAO tools and call verify_basic with {"record":{"claim":"cursor-connection-test"}}.

Cursor must be installed locally and will show its own confirmation prompt before adding the server.
