Connect Cursor

This guide connects the Cursor editor to your WHMCS through Relyagent. Relyagent turns WHMCS into a self-hosted MCP server — an open standard that lets AI assistants call external tools — so Cursor can list and call only the WHMCS tools you allow.

Prerequisites

• A connection created under Addons → Relyagent → MCP Clients — see Configuration.

• Its Client ID and Client Secret (the secret is shown only once at creation).

• The shared Endpoint URL:

  https://<your-whmcs>/modules/addons/relyagent/public/mcp/endpoint.php

Grab the exact values from WHMCS

The Setup tab (Addons → Relyagent → Setup) has a Cursor accordion with the Endpoint URL pre-filled and copy-paste steps.

Add Relyagent as an MCP connector

1. In Cursor, open its MCP / custom-connector settings.
2. Add a custom connector and provide the Endpoint URL above as the server URL.
3. When prompted for credentials, enter the connection's Client ID and Client Secret.

Addons → Relyagent → Setup (Cursor accordion)

Authorize and consent

Cursor auto-discovers Relyagent's OAuth endpoints and starts sign-in:

1. You're sent to your native WHMCS admin login — your existing 2FA, brute-force and IP rules apply, because Relyagent shows no login form of its own.
2. A consent screen lists this connection's tools. Approve it to finish.

Verify it works

Ask Cursor to list its available WHMCS tools. It should show only the tools you ticked for this connection — nothing more. Any tool outside that set is rejected.

If it won't connect

Make sure you provided both the Client ID and Client Secret — the Endpoint URL alone isn't enough. Confirm you signed in at the WHMCS admin login and approved consent, and double-check the exact Endpoint URL. See the error reference.
