Cursor

# One-click install.

Click the button below, confirm in Cursor, and BankBridge is installed. Three seconds. No JSON editing.

Step 01

## Click to install.

[Add to Cursor →](cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=bankbridge&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2JhbmticmlkZ2UubW9uZXkvYXBpL21jcCJ9)

Opens Cursor on this computer. Confirm, then sign in to BankBridge in the browser window it opens. No key to paste.

~/.cursor/mcp.json

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bankbridge": {
      "url": "https://bankbridge.money/api/mcp",
      "transport": "streamable-http",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer bbk_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Cursor after editing the config.

Cursor asks you to confirm, then adds BankBridge under Settings → MCP. Signed in here? Your API key is already in the link and you’re done. Otherwise Cursor opens the BankBridge sign-in page in your browser: sign in (or try the demo) and click **Allow**. Editing `mcp.json` by hand instead? Use the block above with a key from [your dashboard](https://bankbridge.money/dashboard).

Step 02

## Verify it works.

Open Composer or Chat, ask anything from your money:

try this

```
how much did I spend this week?
```

Cursor’s MCP pane (Settings → MCP) shows **bankbridge** connected with 12 tools + 19 prompts.

Troubleshooting

Client connects but shows 0 tools.

Usually the client is caching an old config, or you're on a mode that doesn't expose tools (Ask/Edit vs Agent, for example).

**Fix:** Fully quit + relaunch the host app. In VS Code Copilot, switch to Agent mode.

401 Unauthorized on every call.

The API key is missing, typo'd, or got revoked. Check the Authorization header starts with \`Bearer \` (note the space) and ends in a key you still own.

**Fix:** Paste a fresh key from [Settings](https://bankbridge.money/dashboard/settings).

Tools return setup\_required.

Your BankBridge account has no active subscription yet, or it was canceled or is past due. The connection itself works; each tool answers with the link that finishes setup.

**Fix:** Visit [Settings](https://bankbridge.money/dashboard/settings) to start or restore your subscription, then connect a bank.

Tools return a NO\_CONNECTIONS warning.

You haven't linked a bank yet.

**Fix:** Visit [Connect a bank](https://bankbridge.money/dashboard/connect) . The bank-connect flow opens automatically, ~30 seconds.
