Recursor MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server - Connect AI assistants (Claude Desktop, Cursor) to your Recursor project's memory

Recursor MCP Server

Connect your AI coding assistant (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.) to your Recursor project's memory and learnings.

What is This?

The Recursor MCP (Model Context Protocol) server allows AI assistants to:

• Search your memory: Query past corrections and coding patterns
• Learn from you: Save new corrections when you fix the AI's output
• Access project context: Pull information specific to your project

Installation

pip install recursor-mcp-server

Or from Test PyPI:

pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple/ recursor-mcp-server

Quick Start

1. Get Your Configuration

1. Log into your Recursor Dashboard
2. Select your project
3. Find the "MCP Server Configuration" section
4. Click "Copy Config"

2. Configure Your AI Tool

Claude Desktop

1. Open your config file:

   • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

2. Paste the configuration from your dashboard

3. Restart Claude Desktop

Cursor

1. Open Settings (Cmd/Ctrl + ,)
2. Search for "MCP"
3. Add the configuration to your MCP servers list
4. Restart Cursor

3. Set Environment Variables

export RECURSOR_API_KEY="your-api-key"
export RECURSOR_API_URL="https://api.recursor.dev/api/v1"

4. Run the Server

Stdio Mode (for Claude Desktop/Cursor):

recursor-mcp

Or:

python -m recursor_mcp_server

HTTP Bridge Mode (for Docker, n8n, etc.):

recursor-mcp --http

Or:

MCP_MODE=http python -m recursor_mcp_server

Examples:

You: "Search my memory for authentication patterns"
AI: *Calls search_memory("authentication")*
AI: "Based on your past corrections, you prefer JWT with httpOnly cookies..."

You: "Actually, use TypeScript interfaces, not types"
AI: *Calls add_correction("type User = {...}", "interface User {...}", "User prefers interfaces")*
AI: "Got it! I'll use interfaces from now on."

You: "What's my current usage?"
AI: *Calls get_usage()*
AI: "You've used 1,234 API calls this month (62% of limit)..."

HTTP Bridge API

When running in HTTP mode, the server exposes REST endpoints:

• GET / - Health check
• POST /search - Search corrections
• POST /corrections - Add correction

See HTTP Bridge Documentation for details.

Configuration

Environment variables:

• RECURSOR_API_KEY (required) - Your Recursor API key
• RECURSOR_API_URL (optional) - API endpoint (default: https://recursor.dev/v1)
• RECURSOR_PROJECT_ID (optional) - Project ID for analytics
• MCP_MODE (optional) - http for HTTP bridge, or omit for stdio
• MCP_HTTP_PORT (optional) - HTTP bridge port (default: 8001)
• MCP_HTTP_HOST (optional) - HTTP bridge host (default: 0.0.0.0)
• CORS_ORIGINS (optional) - Comma-separated list of allowed CORS origins

Troubleshooting

"Module not found" errors

Make sure you installed the package:

pip install recursor-mcp-server

"Cannot connect to API" errors

• Verify your RECURSOR_API_KEY is set correctly
• Check that RECURSOR_API_URL points to the correct endpoint
• Ensure you have internet connectivity

"Tools not appearing" in AI assistant

• Restart your AI tool (Claude Desktop/Cursor) after adding the config
• Check the AI tool's logs for MCP errors
• Verify the MCP server is running: recursor-mcp
