# Setup other MCP clients

This guide covers generic setup for MCP clients such as Cursor, Windsurf, and custom clients.

## Connection details

Point your MCP client to the Wrike MCP server endpoint:

* **MCP server URL:** `https://mcp.wrike.com/v2`

## Authentication

**Recommended:** If your MCP client provides a UI to add MCP servers/connectors, use that instead of manually editing config files.

**Note for manually configured clients:** Many MCP clients configured via npx mcp-remote (including Claude Desktop and Cursor) require DCR (Dynamic Client Registration) for OAuth. Use a **Permanent Access Token** for these clients for now.

**Permanent Access Token:** Set the following HTTP header on all requests:

```
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
```

Replace `YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN` with your Wrike Permanent Access Token. See [Legacy Authentication Setup](permanent-access-token) for how to generate one.

## Cursor configuration

Add the following to `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project root:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wrike": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.wrike.com/v2",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
