Connect Cursor to Tandem
Cursor connects to Tandem's remote server and signs in through your browser.
Steps
- Add Tandem to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (one project).
- Open Cursor Settings, then MCP, and choose Login next to tandem.
~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"tandem": { "url": "https://api.tandemcrm.app/mcp" }
}
}
How it signs in
Cursor signs in with OAuth: it registers itself with Tandem, opens your browser, and you sign in, choose a workspace and approve what it may do (read, suggest, write, delete). It gets crm:read and crm:write unless you approve less. Disconnect it any time under Agents in Tandem.
Try it
Ask Cursor: "Which Tandem workspace are you connected to, and what can you do there?" Then try "Add acme.com to Tandem with the details from its website."
See the tools reference for everything Cursor can do, and permissions for what each scope allows.
