Connect Cursor to the Swoop MCP server and create presentations while you code.

​
Prerequisites

​
Setup

1

Open MCP settings

In Cursor, go to Settings > MCP (or open the command palette and search for “MCP”).
2

Add a new MCP server

Click Add new MCP server and enter the following details:
  • Name: swoop
  • Type: command
  • Command: 
    npx mcp-remote@latest https://app.swoop.it/api/mcp
3

Authenticate

On first use, a browser window opens for you to sign in with your Swoop account. After signing in, the connection is established automatically.
4

Verify the connection

The Swoop MCP server should appear as connected in the MCP settings panel. You should see ask_swoopAgent listed as an available tool.

​
Usage

Use Cursor’s AI chat to interact with Swoop:
  • “Create a presentation about our new API features”
  • “Generate a deck summarizing this README file”
  • “Update the presentation outline to focus on performance improvements”
Cursor maintains the conversation thread automatically, so follow-up requests build on previous interactions within the same chat session.

​
Using an API key instead of OAuth

If you prefer API key authentication, update the command: 
npx mcp-remote@latest https://app.swoop.it/api/mcp --header "Authorization:Bearer ak_your_api_key_here"
See Authentication for details on creating API keys.
