### Configure Local Development MCP Server

Source: https://github.com/useshortcut/mcp-server-shortcut/blob/main/README.md

This configuration snippet allows AI assistants like Cursor and Windsurf to use a locally built version of the MCP server for development and testing. It specifies the `node` command to run the compiled `index.js` file from the local `dist` directory, along with the necessary API token environment variable. This requires the project to be built first using `npm run build`.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shortcut": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/your/local/mcp-server-shortcut/dist/index.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN": "<YOUR_SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

--------------------------------

### Build Node.js Project

Source: https://github.com/useshortcut/mcp-server-shortcut/blob/main/README.md

This command executes the build script defined in the `package.json` for the `@shortcut/mcp` project, compiling source code into a distributable format.

```bash
npm run build
```

### Configure MCP Server for Windsurf and Cursor

Source: https://github.com/useshortcut/mcp-server-shortcut/blob/main/README.md

This configuration snippet allows both Windsurf and Cursor to connect to the Shortcut Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It defines a custom server entry within their respective configuration files (Windsurf MCP Configuration Panel or ~/.cursor/mcp.json), specifying `npx` to run the latest `@shortcut/mcp` package and an environment variable for the API token. Users should replace `<YOUR_SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN>` with their actual token.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shortcut": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@shortcut/mcp@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN": "<YOUR_SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Configure Claude Code for Shortcut MCP Server

Source: https://github.com/useshortcut/mcp-server-shortcut/blob/main/README.md

This configuration snippet enables Claude Code to utilize the Shortcut Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It defines a custom server entry within the `~/.claude.json` file, nested under `projects.mcpServers`, instructing Claude Code to execute the `@shortcut/mcp` package via `npx` and providing an environment variable for the API token. Users must replace `<YOUR_SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN>` with their actual token.

```json
{
  "projects": {
    "mcpServers": {
      "shortcut": {
        "command": "npx",
        "args": [
          "-y",
          "@shortcut/mcp@latest"
        ],
        "env": {
          "SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN": "<YOUR_SHORTCUT_API_TOKEN>"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```
