Add the BrowserStack MCP server to Cursor
Run Playwright and Selenium tests on real devices and browsers, debug failures, scan for accessibility issues and manage test cases.
1. Add the server
Paste into .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global)
{
"mcpServers": {
"browserstack": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@browserstack/mcp-server"
],
"env": {
"BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME": "<your BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME>",
"BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY": "<your BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY>"

2. Sign in
Cursor prompts you to sign in the first time a remote OAuth server is used. BrowserStack runs locally and needs BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME, BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY. Replace the placeholder values above with your own before starting Cursor.
3. Try it
Ask Cursor for something BrowserStack can do. Run Playwright and Selenium tests on real devices and browsers, debug failures, scan for accessibility issues and manage test cases. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.
- · Remote servers take a url; local servers take command and args.
- · Values can reference ${env:NAME} so secrets stay out of the file.
