MCP setup

After wiring Curxor's MCP server into your editor: select an element on the page → write what you want → click Copy Code to get a CX-XXXXXX → paste it to the AI, which reads the element context and makes the change.

One-click setup

Run the command below to auto-configure Claude Code / Cursor / Trae / Codex:

bash

curxor mcp setup

mcp setup auto-configures Claude Code / Cursor / Trae / Codex (skipping any that aren't installed). If it doesn't take effect, see Troubleshooting below.

Check the configuration state:

bash

curxor mcp status

You'll need to restart Cursor / Trae or open a new Claude Code / Codex session for it to take effect.

Workflow

Select the target element on your dev page and type how you want to change it
Set the send target to Copy Code — the clipboard gets a CX-XXXXXX
Paste it into Cursor / Claude Code / Trae / Codex and send
The AI reads that element's context (source location + screenshot) and makes the change

Troubleshooting

The AI doesn't recognize the CX code: MCP isn't active. Run curxor mcp status to confirm it's configured, then restart the editor / open a new session.
Code invalid or expired: the pasted code is misspelled, missing, or expired — copy a fresh one in the browser.
CLI not running: run curxor status to confirm the CLI is online (first time needs curxor init).

Auto-configuration not working (e.g. the editor can't read the terminal PATH)? Write the config into the project-root .mcp.json manually — set command to the real path from which curxor:

json

{ "mcpServers": { "curxor": { "command": "/Users/you/.local/bin/curxor", "args": ["mcp"] } } }
