install ask-codex-mcp on Cursor

Requires Node 18+ on your system so npx can fetch the package on first run. Cursor reloads its MCP servers automatically the moment the file is saved — no restart needed. Paste the config below, then follow the reload step to register ask-codex-mcp.

paste into

global: ~/.cursor/mcp.json

project: .cursor/mcp.json  (commit alongside your repo)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ask-codex": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "ask-codex-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

then: No restart needed — Cursor picks up the change automatically.
