How to connect your 📝MythOS knowledge library to 📝Cursor, Claude Desktop, or Windsurf using the mythos-mcp npm package.

📝MCP clients that support stdio transport connect to MythOS through a lightweight npm package. One config block and your library is available inside your editor or desktop app. For a detailed Cursor guide, see 📝How to Use MythOS with Cursor.

What You'll Need

• A MythOS account with a Scholar or Oracle plan
• An API key from mythos.one/settings/api-keys
• Node.js installed (for npx)

Steps

1. Open — your MCP client's configuration file. In Cursor: Settings > MCP Servers. In Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json
1. Add — the following MCP server configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mythos": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mythos-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "MYTHOS_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY",
        "MYTHOS_USERNAME": "YOUR_USERNAME"
      }
    }
  }
}

1. Replace — YOUR_API_KEY and YOUR_USERNAME with your actual credentials
1. Restart — your MCP client to load the new server
1. Verify — by asking the AI to search your MythOS library

The npm package is mythos-mcp (npmjs.com/package/mythos-mcp).
