What Cursor can do with Octolens

From complaint to commit

Ask the agent for this week's bug-report mentions, pick one, and fix it — the original thread stays linked for the changelog reply.

Context for what you're building

Before touching a feature, see what users actually say about it — friction, workarounds, and requests, pulled into the editor.

Real quotes for docs and release notes

Grab the exact language users struggle with, and write docs that answer the questions they're really asking.

The full tool surface

Same 23 MCP tools as everywhere else — mention search, analytics, keywords, and feeds — available to Cursor's Agent mode.

Connect Cursor

One entry in mcp.json, one OAuth sign-in.

Add the server to mcp.json

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, or use Command Palette → “Add new global MCP server”.

~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "octolens": {
      "url": "https://app.octolens.com/api/mcp/v2"
    }
  }
}

Authenticate

Open Cursor Settings → MCP and click Authenticate on the Octolens entry — a browser tab opens for the Octolens sign-in.

Use it in Agent mode

Octolens tools show up alongside your other MCP servers — reference mentions in prompts and let the agent pull what it needs.

Example prompts

List this week's bug_report mentions for our SDK, newest first.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — that's where it shines. Agent mode can call the Octolens tools mid-task: read the bug-report mentions, reproduce, fix, and leave the thread URL in the commit message.

No. Cursor authenticates via OAuth — click Authenticate in Settings → MCP, sign in to Octolens in the browser, and the session is stored. Revoke it from Octolens whenever you want.

The connection is scoped to your Octolens workspace and its tools; write tools (keywords, feeds) are distinct from read tools, and Cursor shows you each tool call before results flow into context.

Nothing beyond your Octolens plan — MCP access is included on all of them, trial included. Windsurf and other MCP-compatible editors connect the same way.
