Cursor

Add FocusPilot to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (every project) or .cursor/mcp.json (one project). Cursor then shows FocusPilot in its MCP settings with a prompt to log in; select it, sign in to FocusPilot, and select Allow.

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "focuspilot": {
      "url": "https://focuspilot.online/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
mcp.json with an MCP token instead
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "focuspilot": {
      "url": "https://focuspilot.online/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer fpm_YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

Run MCP: Add Server from the Command Palette and choose HTTP, or add FocusPilot to .vscode/mcp.json. VS Code asks you to sign in to FocusPilot the first time Copilot uses it.

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "focuspilot": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://focuspilot.online/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json with an MCP token (VS Code asks for it and stores it securely)
{
  "inputs": [
    { "type": "promptString", "id": "focuspilot-token", "description": "FocusPilot MCP token", "password": true }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "focuspilot": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://focuspilot.online/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${input:focuspilot-token}" }
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Add FocusPilot to ~/.gemini/settings.json with an MCP token kept in an environment variable:

~/.gemini/settings.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "focuspilot": {
      "httpUrl": "https://focuspilot.online/api/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${FOCUSPILOT_TOKEN}" }
    }
  }
}

Any other MCP app

Create an MCP tokenFor apps set up with a token.MCP developer referenceProtocol details and the full tool list.
  • Server address: https://focuspilot.online/api/mcp
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP.
  • Sign-in: OAuth with automatic client registration. Apps that support it find everything from the address alone.
  • Or a token: send an MCP token as Authorization: Bearer fpm_….
