Connect Cursor
Paste a prompt into Cursor, or add four lines to mcp.json.
Recommended: let Cursor set it up
Paste this into Cursor. It adds the AutoBacklinks server and walks you through sign-in.
Paste into Cursor
Help me connect AutoBacklinks. 1. Add AutoBacklinks as an MCP server with url https://mcp.autobacklinks.ai (OAuth, no API key). 2. If sign-in is needed, send me the login URL so I can finish it in the browser. 3. Wait for me to finish sign-in in the browser. Do not ask for an API key; sign-in is OAuth. 4. Call list_websites and name my sites. 5. Tell me if AutoBacklinks is connected and ready. If not, tell me what failed. If you cannot add an MCP server here, stop and tell me to use the manual setup instead.
Alternative: add the server yourself
Open Connect in Cursor, or paste this into mcp.json.
Connect in Cursormcp.json
{ "mcpServers": { "autobacklinks": { "url": "https://mcp.autobacklinks.ai" } } }Check it worked
Paste this into Cursor. It confirms the server can see your account, not just that it was added.
Paste into Cursor
Use the AutoBacklinks MCP server you just added and call list_websites. If sign-in is needed, send me the login URL and wait for me to finish in the browser. Do not ask for an API key. Then name my sites and tell me if AutoBacklinks is connected and ready. If not, tell me what failed.
What you can do
Once connected, the assistant can add sites, find prospects, run campaigns, review drafts, send, and answer replies. Reads are free. Anything that spends credits or sends email waits for your yes. New campaigns hold every draft for review.
Things to try
- Start a weekly guest post campaign for Rising Trends. Hold every draft for my review.
- Scan my competitors for guest post prospects and drop every news site.
- Show me the drafts that are ready for DataFast and read me the three best ones.
- Which replies came in this week, and which ones ask for money?
- How is Rising Trends doing this month across every campaign?
- Add example.com to my account and pick the best five competitors.
- How many credits did I spend from chat this month?
Troubleshooting
- The Connect link does nothing. The browser has to allow cursor:// links. If nothing happens, paste the mcp.json block instead.
- The server shows an error or no tools. Check mcp.json matches the block exactly, save, and restart Cursor.
- Cursor never asked you to sign in. Remove the server, add it again, and complete the browser sign-in when it appears.
