3. Build the Server

bash npm run build

4. Adding to Cursor This project is designed to be used as an MCP server in Cursor. Here's how to set it up: 1. Open Cursor 2. Go to Cursor Settings > Features > MCP 3. Click + Add New MCP Server 4. Fill out the form: - Name: Workato MCP Server - Type: stdio - Command: node /path/to/your/project/dist/server.js - Environment Variables: - Click "Add Environment Variable" - Name: WORKATO_API_TOKEN - Value: your_token_here 📘 Pro Tip: Use the full path to your project's built server.js file. Alternative Configuration: You can also configure the MCP server using a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project:

json
{
"mcpServers": {
"workato-tools": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/your/project/dist/server.js"],
"env": {
"WORKATO_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
}
}
}
}

Using with Claude Desktop: If you're using Claude Desktop instead of Cursor, you can configure the MCP server by editing the Claude desktop configuration:

1. Open or create the configuration file:

bash
# On macOS
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
# On Windows
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
# On Linux
~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json



2. Add your MCP server configuration:

json
{
"mcp_servers": {
"workato-tools": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/your/project/dist/server.js"],
"env": {
"WORKATO_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
}
}
}
}
```

3. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect

This method allows you to:
- Version control your MCP configuration
- Include environment variables directly in the config
- Share the same configuration across team members (excluding sensitive values)
- Automatically load the server when opening the project in Cursor
