FAQ
How do I install MagicSlides in Cursor?
Use the one-click install link on this page, or add {"mcpServers":{"magicslides":{"url":"https://www.magicslides.app/api/mcp/mcp"}}} to ~/.cursor/mcp.json.
Do I need an API key in mcp.json?
No. The config only has the URL. Cursor runs the OAuth login the first time you connect.
Can I add it for one project only?
Yes. Put the same JSON in .cursor/mcp.json at the root of that project instead of your home folder.
Does it work with cursor-agent in the terminal?
Yes. The Cursor CLI reads the same mcp.json files and lists magicslides under cursor-agent mcp list.
