Connect Cursor to UIPlug via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Browse and search UI components, manage your profile, list groups, and submit components from the agent using uiplug-mcp.

• Cursor (recent version with MCP support)
• A UIPlug API key from Dashboard → Settings

When published, install from Cursor → Marketplace and search for UIPlug.

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone git@github.com:uiplug/uiplug-in.git
   # or: git clone https://github.com/uiplug/uiplug-in.git

2. Symlink or copy the repo folder into Cursor’s local plugins directory:

   mkdir -p ~/.cursor/plugins/local
   ln -sf /absolute/path/to/uiplug-in ~/.cursor/plugins/local/uiplug

   Use the folder you cloned into (if you renamed it, point ln at that path).

3. Developer: Reload Window (or restart Cursor).

The plugin runs the MCP server with:

npx -y uiplug-mcp

Set your API key so the process can authenticate:

# macOS / Linux (~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc)
export UIPLUG_API_KEY="uiplug_sk_..."

Restart Cursor after changing your shell profile (or launch Cursor from a terminal so it inherits the variable).

If you copy the MCP block into .cursor/mcp.json in a project, you can add:

"envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/.env"

and put UIPLUG_API_KEY=... in that project’s .env (never commit real keys).

Set UIPLUG_API_KEY in any environment Cursor inherits (system env vars, launch configuration, etc.).

1. Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP.
2. Find uiplug under Installed MCP Servers and turn it on.

Provided by uiplug-mcp (see npm package for the full list): browse/search components, profile and stats, list groups, create components, and more.
