Connect Cursor

Cursor connects to Buzzmark as an MCP server: paste one block of config into Cursor's MCP settings, sign in to Buzzmark in the browser once, and Cursor can write and schedule posts in your Hive voice.

For a setup with no browser, send a Buzzmark API key as a Bearer header instead.

Cursor reads your project; Buzzmark only gets the words Cursor sends and the files you ask it to upload.

Add the server

Cursor

  1. 1. In Cursor, open Settings, then MCP, and choose Add new MCP server.

  2. 2. Paste the config below. Cursor opens Buzzmark to sign in the first time.

  3. 3. Or make an API key below and send it as a Bearer header instead.

mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "buzzmark": {
      "url": "https://buzzmark.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor reads this from ~/.cursor/mcp.json for every project, or from .cursor/mcp.json inside one project. The first time Cursor calls Buzzmark, it opens a Buzzmark page in your browser, where you press Allow.

Use an API key instead

  1. 1. In Buzzmark, open AI apps and go to API keys.

  2. 2. Type a name for the key, such as Cursor, and press Make a key.

  3. 3. Press Copy, then Done. Buzzmark shows the key once.

  4. 4. Put the key in an environment variable called BUZZMARK_API_KEY on your computer.

  5. 5. Add a headers line to the config, so Cursor sends the key on every request.

Cursor config with an API key

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "buzzmark": {
      "url": "https://buzzmark.ai/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:BUZZMARK_API_KEY}" }
    }
  }
}

Cursor fills in ${env:BUZZMARK_API_KEY} from your environment, so the key itself never sits in a file you might commit. A key works as you until you revoke it on the AI apps page.

Files from your project

Cursor can read files itself, so it can put a screenshot or video from your project on a draft. It asks Buzzmark for an upload address, sends the file there, and adds it to the draft you name. Buzzmark takes JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, MP4 or MOV, pictures up to 10 MB and videos up to 200 MB.

Ask in plain words, such as: read the changelog and draft one post per feature for X and LinkedIn, then put the dark mode screenshot on the first one. Drafts land under Drafts in Buzzmark until you or Cursor schedule them.
