Add Adwave to Cursor with one click, then sign in when Cursor asks.

Add Adwave to Cursor with the one-click link below, then sign in when Cursor asks. You can also add the server URL to your mcp.json file. Adwave isn't listed in the Cursor Marketplace as of the date above, so use one of these two routes.

Server URL

https://waverunner.adwave.com/api/mcp

Steps

1. Open the Add to Cursor link and confirm the install in Cursor.
2. Sign in to Adwave when Cursor asks. New to Adwave? Create your account in that window.

Or add it by hand in .cursor/mcp.json for one project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for all of them:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "adwave": { "url": "https://waverunner.adwave.com/api/mcp" }
  }
}

Check that it works

Most apps need a new conversation or a reload before new tools appear. Then ask: "List my Adwave campaigns and their spend." A new account has none yet, and the assistant should say so without an error.

Limits

• Cursor's own approval settings decide when it asks before running a tool, so check them before you let it work on campaigns.
• If your team uses an MCP allowlist, an admin may need to approve this URL. See Cursor's MCP docs, checked November 3, 2026.
• Campaigns run in the US and Canada only, from $30 a day on a prepaid wallet. TikTok is opt-in early access. Pinterest is coming soon.
• Every tool that spends is marked destructive, so the app asks first. Launching and resuming set the day aside, and what ran is charged the next morning. Top-ups happen on Stripe's hosted page, never in chat.
