Post to LinkedIn from Cursor
Add WordPush to Cursor’s mcp.json and draft, illustrate and schedule LinkedIn posts from the editor you are already building in.
Free for 7 days, no card. The connector is included in the plan.
The address you will paste
https://app.wordpush.co.uk/mcp/wordpush Authorised with OAuth using your normal WordPush sign-in. No API key, nothing to host, and you can revoke it in Settings whenever you like.
Worth knowing: Cursor is the same build-then-post rhythm as Claude Code, for people whose day happens in Cursor rather than a terminal.
Connecting WordPush to Cursor
- Open Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP and choose New MCP Server, which opens
mcp.json. You can also create the file by hand. - Add the WordPush entry shown below. Use
~/.cursor/mcp.jsonto have it everywhere, or.cursor/mcp.jsoninside a project to keep it to that repo. - Save. Cursor opens your browser to complete the OAuth sign-in automatically.
- Ask for a post in the chat panel once it shows as connected.
{
"mcpServers": {
"wordpush": {
"url": "https://app.wordpush.co.uk/mcp/wordpush"
}
}
} - No credentials go in this file. WordPush supports dynamic client registration, so Cursor handles the OAuth handshake itself — there is no client ID or secret to add.
- That also means this file is safe to commit if you scope it to a project.
Steps last checked against Anysphere’s own documentation on 28 September 2026. Cursor changes these menus from time to time — if yours look different, the Cursor’s MCP documentation is the authority.
