## 🚀 How to Enable MCP Servers in Cursor

### Step 1: Locate Your MCP Config File

Your MCP config is already at:
```
/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW/.cursor/mcp_config.json
```

This file is **already configured**! ✅

### Step 2: Restart Cursor IDE

**Important**: Cursor only loads MCP servers on startup.

1. **Close Cursor completely** (Cmd+Q on Mac)
2. **Reopen Cursor**
3. **Open your project**: `/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW`

### Step 3: Verify MCP Servers Loaded

In Cursor, press **Cmd+L** (Mac) or **Ctrl+L** (Windows) to open AI chat, then type:

```
Can you list the available MCP tools?
```

**Expected output**: Claude should show `versatil_*` tools if the MCP server is loaded.

## 🔍 Troubleshooting: "MCP Not Installed"

### Issue: Cursor Not Finding MCP Config

**Possible causes:**

#### Cause 1: MCP Config in Wrong Location

Cursor looks for MCP config in **two places**:

1. **Project-level**: `.cursor/mcp_config.json` (✅ You have this!)
2. **Global**: `~/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/globalStorage/mcp_config.json`

**Solution**: Your project-level config should work. If not, try global config:

```bash
# Create global MCP config directory
mkdir -p "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/globalStorage"

# Copy your config to global location
cp "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW/.cursor/mcp_config.json" \
   "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/globalStorage/mcp_config.json"

# Restart Cursor
```

#### Cause 2: Cursor Version Doesn't Support MCP

**Check Cursor version:**
- MCP support requires **Cursor v0.40+**
- Update Cursor: `Help` → `Check for Updates`

#### Cause 3: MCP Feature Not Enabled

Some Cursor versions require enabling MCP:

1. Open Cursor Settings (`Cmd+,`)
2. Search for "MCP" or "Model Context Protocol"
3. Enable MCP server support
4. Restart Cursor

## 🧪 Test MCP Server Manually

To verify the Claude Opera MCP server works:

```bash
cd "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW"

# Test MCP server startup
node bin/versatil-mcp.js "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW"

# Expected output:
# ✅ VERSATIL MCP Server running
# 📊 Tools: 15
# 📚 Resources: 5
# 💬 Prompts: 5
```

**If this works**, the MCP server is functional. The issue is Cursor not connecting to it.

## 🎯 Quick Fix: MCP Not Working

### Try This First

1. **Restart Cursor completely**
   ```bash
   # Kill all Cursor processes
   killall Cursor

   # Reopen Cursor
   open -a Cursor
   ```

2. **Verify MCP config location**
   ```bash
   ls -la "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW/.cursor/mcp_config.json"
   # Should show: -rw-r--r-- ... mcp_config.json
   ```

3. **Test MCP server manually**
   ```bash
   cd "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW"
   node bin/versatil-mcp.js "$(pwd)"
   # Should output: ✅ VERSATIL MCP Server running
   # Press Ctrl+C to stop
   ```

4. **Check Cursor logs**
   ```bash
   # Mac
   tail -f "$HOME/Library/Logs/Cursor/main.log" | grep -i mcp

   # Look for:
   # - "MCP server started"
   # - "MCP connection established"
   # - Or any MCP errors
   ```

## 🆘 Still Not Working?

### Check These:

1. **Cursor Version**
   - Go to `Help` → `About Cursor`
   - Requires v0.40+ for MCP support

2. **Node.js Version**
   ```bash
   node --version
   # Should be v18+ (you have v24.7.0 ✅)
   ```

3. **MCP Config Syntax**
   ```bash
   # Validate JSON
   cat "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW/.cursor/mcp_config.json" | jq .
   # Should output valid JSON without errors
   ```

4. **File Permissions**
   ```bash
   # Make MCP server executable
   chmod +x "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW/bin/versatil-mcp.js"
   ```

5. **Check Cursor Settings**
   - Open Settings (`Cmd+,`)
   - Search "MCP"
   - Ensure MCP feature is enabled

## 💡 Alternative: Use Without MCP

If MCP isn't working in Cursor, you can still use Claude Opera:

### Option 1: Terminal Mode
```bash
# Start interactive mode
versatil init

# Or use individual commands
versatil-daemon start
versatil health
```

### Option 2: Claude Desktop
MCP works better in Claude Desktop app. Copy your config:

```bash
# Copy to Claude Desktop config
mkdir -p "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Claude"
cp "/Users/nissimmenashe/VERSATIL SDLC FW/.cursor/mcp_config.json" \
   "$HOME/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json"
```

Then use Claude Desktop alongside Cursor for framework commands.
