# LLMGRAPH for Cursor

> Add the LLMGRAPH MCP server to Cursor on Windows: the config file, the cmd /c npx form, and how to check it connected.

Add LLMGRAPH to Cursor with one entry in `.cursor/mcp.json`; if Cursor cannot start `npx` on Windows, use `cmd /c npx -y llmgraph-mcp`. This guide follows Cursor's own docs and is not yet tested by us.

## 1. Add the server to Cursor

Add (from the vendor's docs, not yet tested by us): .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (user)

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "llmgraph": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "llmgraph-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor's own docs do not mention a `cmd /c` wrapper on Windows. If it cannot start `npx`, use `cmd /c npx -y llmgraph-mcp`.

## 2. Check that it connected

Check (from the vendor's docs, not yet tested by us; your agent lists them as tools):
- Open Customize in the sidebar and find the llmgraph server.
- If it fails, open the Output panel and choose MCP Logs.

## 3. Sign in once

The first time your agent asks a question, LLMGRAPH answers with a sign-in link and a 6-character code. In a terminal you can run this instead:

```sh
npx -y llmgraph-mcp login
```

The link works for 10 minutes. Open the full link, including everything after the `#`, sign in with Google, compare the code on the page with the one your agent shows, and approve this device. Approving your first device starts your 7-day trial. The full steps are in [Set up with your agent](https://beta.llmgraph.in/docs/start.md).

## 4. Make sure Cursor uses it

Adding a server doesn't make an agent use it.

Add a line to your agent's instructions file, `AGENTS.md`:

```text
Before changing code, ask the llmgraph MCP tools who_calls and what_breaks_if_changed; after editing, run check_my_changes; read each answer's label and its lines about what it cannot see.
```

We can't promise that an agent asks on its own. Every answer starts with `llmgraph · `: look for it where Cursor shows what it asked.

## 5. The five questions

| Question | What it answers |
| --- | --- |
| [who_calls](https://beta.llmgraph.in/docs/questions/who_calls.md) | Every place that calls this function, plus calls we can't see. |
| [what_breaks_if_changed](https://beta.llmgraph.in/docs/questions/what_breaks_if_changed.md) | Everything that depends on this, directly or indirectly, and what we can't see. |
| [check_my_changes](https://beta.llmgraph.in/docs/questions/check_my_changes.md) | After editing: callers you didn't update, and anything we can't see. |
| [what_is_unknown](https://beta.llmgraph.in/docs/questions/what_is_unknown.md) | Where our view is blind (dynamic calls, unknown types, unreadable files) and why. |
| [explain](https://beta.llmgraph.in/docs/questions/explain.md) | Why we said this: the evidence behind one answer line. |
