This article refers to Reclaim 2.0 features and workflows. You can confirm your current app version in Account Settings.

Connect Reclaim to Cursor to access, analyze, and take action on your schedule directly from Cursor using natural language.

How to connect Reclaim to Cursor

Requirements

To use Reclaim with Cursor, you’ll need:

A Cursor account with MCP support
A Reclaim account
A connected Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook calendar

Reclaim supports both Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook calendars.

Cursor MCP setup instructions

Open Cursor
Open Settings (Cmd + , on macOS)
Navigate to Tools & MCPs
Select New MCP Server
Cursor will open the mcp.json configuration file

Add the following MCP server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "reclaim": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.reclaim.ai"
    }
  }
}

If mcpServers already exists in your configuration file, add the reclaim entry inside the existing object instead of replacing the file contents.

Save the file (Cmd + S)
Wait for the Reclaim MCP server to appear in Cursor
Click Connect next to the Reclaim MCP server
Complete the OAuth authentication flow in your browser
Click Allow access to authenticate with your Reclaim account

Once connected, Cursor can access Reclaim directly through MCP-powered workflows.

Troubleshooting

If the connection isn’t working correctly:

Confirm the MCP server URL was entered correctly:

https://mcp.reclaim.ai

Verify the JSON syntax in mcp.json is valid
Restart Cursor and try reconnecting
Re-authenticate with your Reclaim account if prompted

If the Reclaim MCP server still does not appear as connected, repeat the setup and authorization steps above.

What you can do with Reclaim in Cursor

With Reclaim connected, Cursor can help you:

View and analyze your schedule
Find the best meeting times
Create and update calendar events
Protect focus time automatically
Detect scheduling conflicts
Optimize your workweek
Coordinate meetings across teams
Surface productivity insights

Unlike basic calendar integrations that only display events, Reclaim enables Cursor to propose and apply scheduling changes through approval-based workflows.

Use case	Capabilities	Example prompts
View your schedule	Display daily or weekly calendar views, availability windows, focus time, scheduling conflicts, and priority commitments directly from Cursor.	“What does my day look like?” “Show me my calendar for this week.” “How busy am I tomorrow afternoon?”
Find meeting times	Analyze attendee availability, recommend optimal meeting windows, and coordinate engineering and project schedules across participants.	“Find 30 minutes with the platform team this week.” “Do I have time for an architecture review tomorrow?” “Schedule sprint planning for next week.”
Create and manage events	Create events, update attendees, reschedule meetings, cancel events, and respond to invitations directly from Cursor.	“Schedule a weekly engineering sync every Monday morning.” “Move my 1:1 with Jamie to next week.” “Cancel tomorrow’s project review.”
Protect focus time	Automatically reserve deep work sessions, reduce fragmented schedules, and protect uninterrupted coding and development time.	“Block two hours for debugging work tomorrow morning.” “Protect coding time this afternoon.” “Make Friday meeting-free.”
Analyze and optimize your schedule	Surface productivity insights, detect scheduling conflicts, identify overloaded days, and optimize schedules with buffers and focus time.	“How much focus time did I get this week?” “What’s taking up most of my calendar?” “Analyze my schedule for problems.” “Prepare my calendar for next week.”
Coordinate work sessions	Organize task-focused planning blocks and coordinate structured engineering and project work sessions across your calendar.	“Schedule time for sprint planning.” “Block time to work on the authentication refactor.” “Reserve focus time for launch prep this week.”
Review and apply changes	Preview pending updates, review optimization suggestions, approve scheduling changes safely, and respect working hours and scheduling preferences before applying updates.	“Show me the proposed schedule changes first.” “Review optimization suggestions before applying them.”

How to disconnect Reclaim from Cursor

Disconnecting the Cursor integration removes Cursor’s access to your Reclaim account. Your calendar connections in Reclaim will remain active unless you separately revoke calendar permissions.

To disconnect Reclaim from Cursor:

Open Cursor
Open Settings
Navigate to Tools & MCPs
Locate the Reclaim MCP server
Select Disconnect, Remove, or delete the Reclaim MCP server configuration from mcp.json

If removing the configuration manually, delete the following MCP server entry:

"reclaim": {
  "type": "http",
  "url": "https://mcp.reclaim.ai"
}

Once disconnected, Cursor will no longer be able to access or interact with your Reclaim account.

How to revoke calendar permissions

If you also want to remove Reclaim’s access to your Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook account, you’ll need to revoke permissions directly from your calendar provider.
