Cursor + TripBooster
Import next to your codebase
Cursor agents discover TripBooster over OAuth when you add the remote MCP URL—no API key required for OAuth-capable setups.
Example chat
via TripBooster MCP · Cursor
Cursor drives MCP; TripBooster shows the result in your workspace UI.
How to connect Cursor
- Add the TripBooster server URL to .cursor/mcp.json (see snippet below) or Cursor Settings → MCP.
- When Cursor requests authentication, complete TripBooster browser sign-in and consent.
- In Agent mode, ask to list_trips before import_email.
- Settings → Developer in TripBooster documents OAuth and API key fallbacks.

{
"mcpServers": {
"tripbooster": {
"url": "https://tripbooster.dev/mcp"
}
}
}OAuth sign-in is recommended. Developer API keys in Settings → Developer work for clients that cannot open the browser consent flow. Confirm with you before sync_gmail_reservations or import_email adds reservations to your vault.
What you can do with Cursor
Ship and announce
Turn release notes in your repo into validated multi-trip posts without leaving Cursor.

TripBooster MCP tools
Agents read trips, reservations, wishes, alerts, and tasks. Mutating tools are limited to sync_gmail_reservations, import_email, and reviewing list_pending_imports before you approve imports in the app.
Example prompts
- What MCP tools does TripBooster expose? Summarize mutating tools that need my confirmation.
- Create drafts for flights and hotels from the same caption; validate both.
Agents should call list_pending_imports and show parsed reservations before you approve them in TripBooster. Only run Gmail sync or email import when you explicitly ask.
Frequently asked questions
- Is TripBooster preinstalled in ChatGPT or Claude?
- No. You add TripBooster as a custom MCP connector (or use OAuth from a client that supports remote MCP). Sign in with your TripBooster account when the client opens the consent flow.
- Will the agent import email without asking me?
- TripBooster expects a human in the loop. Agents should use list_pending_imports and show parsed reservations before you approve them in the app. Only run sync_gmail_reservations or import_email when you explicitly want new bookings added.
- Can agents upload passport scans through MCP?
- Not through TripBooster MCP today. Agents can read trips, reservations, alerts, and tasks, and submit email text via import_email for parsing. Document uploads stay in the TripBooster app or vault UI.
- What data can agents see?
- Only trips, reservations, wishes, alerts, and tasks in your TripBooster account—scoped to OAuth or API key permissions. Agents do not receive your Gmail password; Gmail sync uses connections you enable in Settings → Import.
