Check it worked. In Cursor's MCP settings, subbly shows as on with its tools listed. Then ask the agent to list your published products.

Why connect Cursor to Subbly

  • One click to set up

    The Add to Cursor button fills in Subbly's server and your key, and Cursor asks you to confirm.

  • Real store data in your editor

    Cursor's agent reads your products and plans while it writes your storefront, so the site always shows what you sell.

  • Change the store without leaving the code

    Add a plan, publish a product or create a coupon from the agent panel while you build.

Try these with Cursor

Once Subbly is connected, just describe what you want. Copy one to start, or use it as a starting point.

Built by Subbly

Describe your store. Your Subbly agent builds it.

Your website, checkout and customer portal are designed and built by your Subbly agent, around your brand. Site editing through MCP is coming soon, so the agent you already use will be able to change your pages too.

See what it builds

Not through MCP yet

Coming soon
  • Design or edit your website (your Subbly agent does that, and site editing through MCP is coming soon)
  • Set up funnels, automations, dunning or the referral program
  • Read analytics reports (it can pull the raw orders and subscriptions to work them out)

You set those up in your Subbly admin.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I find my Subbly API key for Cursor?

In your Subbly admin, open Settings, then API keys (https://www.subbly.co/admin/settings/api-keys). In the Private API keys card, choose Generate API key and copy it. Only the store owner and admins can create keys, and Subbly asks for two-factor authentication first. Give Cursor its own key, so you can delete it without breaking anything else.

Can I keep my key out of mcp.json?

Yes. Write "X-API-KEY": "${env:SUBBLY_API_KEY}" and set SUBBLY_API_KEY in your shell profile. Restart Cursor after changing your profile so it picks the variable up.

Cursor doesn't show the Subbly tools. What should I check?

Check subbly is switched on in Cursor's MCP settings, and open the MCP Logs in the Output panel for the error. Most problems are a key with a space or line break at the end, or invalid JSON in mcp.json.

Is it safe to give Cursor my Subbly API key?

The key can read and change everything in your store, so treat it like a password and keep it out of files you share or commit. Cursor asks before running a tool unless you allow it, and Subbly's tools tell the agent to confirm with you before archiving or deleting anything. If a key leaks, delete it under Settings, API keys, and it stops working straight away.

Can Cursor build my website through Subbly's MCP server?

Not yet. The MCP server runs your store: products, plans, subscriptions, orders, customers and coupons. Your website is built by your Subbly agent: describe it in Subbly and it designs and builds the store, checkout included. Site editing through MCP is coming soon, so Cursor will be able to change your pages too. Until then, Cursor can build a custom storefront in code that checks out with the SubblyCart.js widget.

Which Subbly plans work with Cursor?

Every plan includes the MCP server, with usage limits that depend on your plan.

Give your agent a store worth running

Your Subbly agent builds a store that looks like your brand. Your own agent runs it. No plugins, no developers, no lock-in.
