Configure Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "synapse-secure-memory": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["path/to/server.py"],
      "env": {
        "SYNAPSE_AGENT_ID": "cursor-ide",
        "SYNAPSE_API_KEY": "sk_connect_YOUR_KEY_HERE",
        "SYNAPSE_BASE_URL": "https://forge.synapselayer.org",
        "SYNAPSE_PRIVACY_EPSILON": "0.5"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace sk_connect_YOUR_KEY_HERE with your actual API key from Step 1.
