Cursor + GoldRush

by Cursor
IDE
Cursor is an AI-native code editor built on VS Code that deeply understands your codebase. With MCP Server integration, Cursor can query live blockchain data while you code, generate GoldRush API integrations inline, and help you build Web3 applications with real-time data context.

Quick Start

1
Install CursorDownload Cursor from cursor.com and open your project.
2
Install GoldRush CLIQuery onchain data directly from your terminal, useful for testing queries before using them in Cursor.
npm install -g @covalenthq/goldrush-cli
3
Add GoldRush MCP ServerOpen Cursor Settings > MCP and add a new server with the configuration below.
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "goldrush": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@covalenthq/goldrush-mcp-server"],
      "env": { "GOLDRUSH_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
4
Open Cursor ChatUse Cmd+L (Mac) or Ctrl+L (Windows) to open the AI chat panel.
5
Start querying onchain dataAsk: "Use the GoldRush MCP tools to get the token balances for vitalik.eth on Ethereum"

Example Prompts

“Get the ETH balance for this wallet address”
“Show me the recent transactions for 0xd8dA... on Base”
“Generate a GoldRush SDK client with balance and transaction methods”
“Add a route that returns NFT holdings for a wallet”
“Create a React hook that fetches token prices from GoldRush”
“Build a TypeScript utility for multi-chain balance aggregation”
“Add error handling to this GoldRush API call”
“Refactor this component to use the GoldRush SDK instead of raw fetch”

Common Workflows

Build a Web3 Component

1Open a React component file and invoke Cursor Chat
2Ask Cursor to add GoldRush balance fetching with the MCP tools
3Cursor generates the component with live data integration
4Use Tab to accept inline suggestions and iterate

Add API Routes

1Ask Cursor to create Next.js API routes for GoldRush data
2It generates routes for balances, transactions, and pricing
3Review and accept the multi-file changes

Refactor to GoldRush SDK

1Select existing blockchain data fetching code
2Ask Cursor to refactor it to use the GoldRush SDK
3It rewrites the code with proper typing and error handling
4Accept the changes across multiple files

Debug Blockchain Queries

1Highlight a failing GoldRush API call
2Ask Cursor to debug using the MCP tools to test the query
3Cursor identifies the issue and suggests a fix inline

Tips for Success

Enable the GoldRush MCP Server in Cursor Settings for live data access in chat
Use @codebase to give Cursor full context of your Web3 project
Cursor's Composer mode (Cmd+I) is great for multi-file GoldRush integrations
Pin GoldRush documentation files for better inline suggestions

Cursor FAQ

Go to Cursor Settings > MCP, click 'Add Server', and paste the GoldRush MCP configuration. Cursor will automatically connect when you start a chat.

Troubleshooting

MCP Server not appearing in CursorRestart Cursor after adding the MCP configuration. Check the MCP panel in settings to verify the server status shows as 'Connected'.
Cursor not using GoldRush toolsExplicitly mention 'use the GoldRush MCP tools' in your prompt. Cursor may need a direct reference to prefer MCP tools over web search.
Slow responses when using MCPMCP tool calls add latency as they make live API requests. For faster iteration, ask Cursor to generate code with the SDK instead of making live calls.
