Using these docs with Cursor

View .md Open in ChatGPT Open in Claude

Cursor is a good home for grandMA3 plugin and showfile-tooling work — it’s a native MCP client and can index grandocs as a custom docs source.

Connect the MCP server

Section titled “Connect the MCP server”

  1. Add the server in ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Settings → MCP → Add new server):

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "grandocs": { "url": "https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp" }
      }
    }

  2. Confirm the grandocs tools appear in Settings → MCP.

  3. Ask in chat — Cursor calls search_docs / command_lookup and cites the page.

See Any MCP client for the tool list.

Or index the docs with @Docs

Section titled “Or index the docs with @Docs”

Cursor can index a docs URL and let you reference it with @Docs:

  1. Settings → Features → Docs → Add new doc.

  2. Point it at the grandocs index https://grandocs.samcarlton.com/llms.txt (or a specific product, e.g. the grandMA3 section).

  3. In chat, type @Docs and pick grandocs to pull the manual into context.
