cursor

Config paths on every platform, whether calls can be blocked in place, and the commands to run.

Where its servers are configured

platformwhere mcpgawk looksshape it reads
macOS.cursor/mcp.jsonmcpServers
Linux.cursor/mcp.jsonmcpServers
Windows.cursor/mcp.jsonmcpServers

Paths are relative to your home directory. mcpgawk only reads them.

Blocking calls

Yes. One hook, installed once, checks every MCP tool call this client makes against the surface you approved — locally, in about 10ms, before the call runs. Free tier; nothing to sign in to.

mcpgawk guard install
mcpgawk guard status

Scan just this client

mcpgawk scan ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Lists every server in that file with what each tool costs and what it can reach. To scan every client at once instead, run mcpgawk with no arguments.
