How to use Athanor in Cursor

Add Athanor to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, or a project's .cursor/mcp.json, for chemistry tools in Cursor's agent. Free, no account, no key.

Athanor's MCP server is free and needs no account. Cursor connects to it at:

https://mcp-athanor.arbastro.com/mcp

Steps

  1. Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in a project):

    {
  "mcpServers": {
    "athanor": {
      "url": "https://mcp-athanor.arbastro.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

  2. Restart Cursor. Athanor appears under the MCP servers in Cursor's settings.

  3. Ask: Use Athanor to name CCO. It should call the name tool and answer ethanol.

The tools it gets are listed in MCP tools. If they do not show up, see MCP troubleshooting.
