5-Minute MCP Setup

Keep using Cursor. Just add memory.

Your IDE agent forgets everything between sessions. Chorum fixes that. In 5 minutes, your AI will remember your project’s patterns, decisions, and conventions—without you repeating yourself.

Before & After

Without Chorum:

“Build the auth endpoint”
AI invents new patterns, ignores your httpOnly cookie rule, uses localStorage

With Chorum MCP:

“Build the auth endpoint”
AI knows you use JWT + httpOnly cookies, follows your established patterns

Setup (3 Steps)

1. Get Your API Token

Visit chorumai.com/app → Settings → MCP Integration → New Token

Copy it immediately—it won’t be shown again.

2. Configure Your IDE

Add this to your MCP config file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chorum": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["chorum-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CHORUM_API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Config file locations:

• Claude Code: ~/.config/claude-code/mcp.json
• Cursor: ~/.cursor/mcp.json
• Windsurf: Settings → MCP Servers

3. Restart Your IDE

That’s it. Your AI agent now has persistent memory.

What Happens Next

Once connected, your IDE agent can:

• Query your memory — Ask “what’s our auth pattern?” and get real answers
• Respect invariants — It knows “never use localStorage for tokens”
• Propose learnings — When it discovers a new pattern, it can suggest adding it

You approve all new learnings in the Chorum web UI. The agent reads, you control what it writes.

Try It Now

Ask your agent:

“What patterns does this project follow?”

If it returns your actual patterns, you’re connected. If it says “I don’t have access to that information,” check troubleshooting.

The MCP server gives your IDE memory. The web app gives you:

Recommendation: Use both. MCP for coding, web app for reviewing and managing memory.
