Title: Trouble Connecting MCP with Cursor on Windows 10
Environment
- OS: Windows 10
- Tools Tried: Supabase, GitHub integrations, MCP CLI
Problem
I’m trying to set up an MCP instance and connect to it using Cursor, but the connection never succeeds:
- In both Supabase and GitHub-hosted setups, the MCP status shows a red “not connected” indicator.
- Running the connection command manually in a terminal hangs for an extended period without any response.
What I’ve Tried
-
Supabase CLI & Dashboard
- Followed the official Supabase MCP guide step by step.
- Deployed & started the MCP service; status remains “not connected.”
-
GitHub Actions Deployment
- Configured workflows according to common tutorials.
- Workflow completes, but the MCP red dot persists.
-
Manual CLI Connection
- Ran
mcp connect
(or equivalent) in PowerShell/CMD. - No error output—just a long timeout.
- Ran
-
YouTube Tutorials
- Followed multiple video walkthroughs showing quick, successful setups.
- I’ve replicated each step exactly but still hit the same issue.
Logs & Screenshots
Questions
- Has anyone encountered an MCP “not connected” status despite following the official docs?
- Are there additional Windows 10-specific configurations or firewall rules I should check?
- What debugging steps or log files could reveal why Cursor can’t establish the connection?
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated—thanks in advance!
