# apifare for Cursor

One prepaid, capped key for every API your agent needs, under hard caps and a kill switch.

1. Get a token: https://apifare.com/start?origin=page:integrations-cursor (shown once).
2. Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json for all projects, or to .cursor/mcp.json inside one project.

```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apifare": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "apifare-mcp"],
      "env": { "APIPAY_TOKEN": "<your-token>" }
    }
  }
}
```

   Replace <your-token> with your token. Reload Cursor: apifare shows up in its MCP settings, and the agent can call its tools.
3. Try it: "search the web for X", then "fetch a URL", then "what's the weather in London".
4. Caps and the kill switch are checked before dispatch. An empty balance returns HTTP 402 with a top-up link (see /errors.md).
