## Setup

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect tools in Engram">
    In **Connectors**, connect the systems your AI client should use for this brand.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create an MCP key">
    Open **Connectors → MCP Access**, create a key named for this device, and copy the secret once.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add Engram in Cursor">
    In **Cursor Settings → MCP**, add:

    ```json theme={null}
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "engram-connectors": {
          "url": "https://engram-chat.onrender.com/mcp/connectors",
          "transport": "streamable-http",
          "headers": {
            "Authorization": "Bearer engram_mcp_YOUR_KEY"
          }
        }
      }
    }
    ```

    Prefer the URL and snippet shown in MCP Access if they differ.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify">
    Restart MCP if needed, then ask Cursor to list Engram tools and read a Notion page or meeting you know exists.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Prompt to try in Cursor

<Prompt description="Verify Engram MCP connectivity" actions={["copy", "cursor"]}>
  Using Engram connectors, list available tools, then summarize my latest Fathom meeting (or Notion page) related to GTM. Cite which tool you called.
</Prompt>

* Tools appear only for connectors you connected
* Reads succeed without pasting secrets into chat
