Connect Cursor to Sociro

Add the Sociro address to Cursor's MCP settings and sign in with your Sociro login when Cursor asks.

The Cursor editor 6 steps

Before you start

A Sociro account on a paid plan
Your Sociro login. You must be the workspace owner or an admin to connect an assistant

1
Open Cursor's MCP file
Use the file in your home folder to have Sociro in every project, or the file in a project's root for that project only.
File
```
~/.cursor/mcp.json   (every project)
.cursor/mcp.json     (one project)
```
2
Add Sociro
Add this entry and save the file. If the file already has other servers, add the sociro entry beside them.
mcp.json
```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sociro": {
      "url": "https://mcp.sociro.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```
3
Sign in when Cursor asks
Open the MCP servers list in Cursor (the Customize page), check Sociro is turned on, and sign in when asked.
4
Choose what Cursor may do, then allow it
Your browser opens Sociro. Sign in if you are asked to. Choose the workspace, every social group or one, and what Cursor may do: see your accounts and posts, schedule posts, add media. Then choose Allow.
5
Ask your first question
In Cursor's chat ask: List my Sociro accounts. By default Cursor asks for your approval before it runs a tool.
6
See or stop the connection in Sociro
In Sociro, open Settings, then Developer API. The assistant is listed under Connected MCP apps with what it can use and do. Disconnect stops it at once.

If Sociro does not appear in chat, check it is turned on in Cursor's MCP servers list. Cursor's Output panel has an MCP Logs view for connection problems.

Sociro says only the workspace owner or an admin can connect an app: You are signed in as a member. Ask the workspace owner or an admin to connect the assistant, or sign in as one.
Sociro says connecting apps needs a paid plan: Connecting an assistant is part of the Developer API, which is on paid plans. Upgrade the workspace, then connect again.
The assistant says a connector with this address already exists: Some assistants allow one connector per address. Use the one you already added instead of adding it again.
The assistant stopped working and asks you to sign in again: A sign-in renews itself, so this means the connection ended: it was disconnected in Sociro, the person who approved it left the workspace, or a year passed since it was approved. Connect again and allow it.
The assistant cannot see one of your brands: The connection was limited to one social group. Disconnect it in Sociro under Settings, Developer API, then connect again and choose every social group.
The assistant can list posts but cannot schedule or add media: That permission was not ticked when you connected. Disconnect, connect again, and tick the things it should be allowed to do.
You cannot attach a file in the chat: On the web, add an image by giving the assistant a link to it. Uploading files from your computer needs the local server.
A post did not go out: Ask the assistant for the post's status. It shows the result on each account and the reason if one failed.

Ask in plain words. These are the things the connection can do:

List social groups and their accounts
Shows every social group (brand) your connection can use and the accounts in each.
"Show my brands and their accounts."
Add an image from a link
Adds an image to your Sociro media library from a link, ready to post.
"Add this image to Sociro: https://example.com/picture.png"
Set a video's thumbnail
Sets or replaces the thumbnail of a video in your library. It can also be used as the cover on platforms that take one.
"Use this image as the thumbnail for that video."
Schedule or publish a post
Schedules a post for later or publishes it now, to one or more accounts of a brand. Supports a first comment, a video cover, and the title, description and privacy options some platforms need.
"Schedule this for tomorrow at 9 AM on my main brand."
Get one post
Shows a post's status on each account, its public links once published, and the reason if it failed.
"Did yesterday's post go out? Give me the links."
List posts
Lists your posts by status, date and brand.
"What is scheduled this week?"
Edit a scheduled post
Changes the caption or the time of a post that has not gone out yet.
"Move that post to 8 PM."
Cancel a scheduled post
Cancels a post that has not gone out yet.
"Cancel that post."

Nothing is published by accident: a post needs a time, or a clear instruction to publish now
No double posts: if the assistant repeats a request, the post that already exists is returned
Your assistant asks before it posts, edits or cancels, when your app is set to ask for approval
A connection can only do what you allowed when you signed in, or what your API key can do, and your plan's limits apply
A sign-in is short-lived and renews itself. Only the workspace owner or an admin can approve one, and it stops if they leave the workspace
The server stores no key and nothing about you between requests
A link to a private or local address is refused when adding an image
