Cursor Delegate Mcp

Cursor Delegate MCP

Let Claude think. Let Cursor build.

An MCP server that lets Claude Code (or any MCP client) delegate coding tasks to Cursor's CLI agent — and get structured results back, not a wall of terminal text.

Why

Frontier models like Opus and Fable are brilliant orchestrators — great at understanding intent, planning, and reviewing. Cursor's Composer is a fast, cheap workhorse for the actual edits, with its own generous usage pool.

This bridge pairs them: the big brain writes the brief and reviews the diff; Cursor does the typing. Your Claude quota goes to thinking, not boilerplate.

How it works

You  →  Claude (Opus / Fable — plans & reviews)
              │  MCP delegate tool
              ▼
        cursor-agent (Composer 2.5 — implements)
              │  edits your workspace
              ▼
        Structured result: files changed, session id, plan

Delegation defaults to Cursor's Composer 2.5, which draws from the separate Auto + Composer usage pool — so implementation work doesn't eat into your API-model quota. Want a different model? Just say so: "delegate with Opus".

Three modes: agent (implement, default) · plan (draft a plan, review, resume to implement) · ask (read-only Q&A).

> Note: delegation auto-approves file writes in the target workspace — review the diff afterward, like any teammate's work.

Features

• 🤝 Perfect Claude Code integration — ships as a plugin with a skill, slash command, and hooks. Just say "delegate this to Cursor" and it happens.
• 💬 Answers Cursor's questions — when Cursor needs a clarification mid-run, the question surfaces in your client's normal prompt. No stalled sessions.
• 📦 Structured results — session id, files changed, stop reason, and plan payload. Claude knows exactly what happened and what to review.
• 📋 Plan mode — have Cursor draft a plan first, review it, then resume the same session to implement.
• 🔍 Ask mode — read-only Q&A over the codebase, zero file changes.
• 🩺 Built-in diagnostics — a doctor tool that tells you exactly what's missing if setup isn't right.
• 🔌 Works everywhere MCP does — Claude Code, VS Code, Codex CLI, Kiro, Kilo Code, and more.

Quick start

Requirements: Node.js 22+ and cursor-agent logged in (cursor-agent login).

Claude Code (recommended)

/plugin marketplace add andreilungeanu/cursor-delegate-mcp
/plugin install cursor-delegate-mcp@cursor-delegate-mcp

Then just ask:

> Delegate to Cursor: migrate src/api from callbacks to async/await and update the tests, then walk me through what changed.

Claude writes the brief, Cursor grinds through the files, and Claude reviews the diff with you — that's the whole loop.

Call the delegate tool with your task; run doctor if anything seems off.
