Get your hsk_live_… token at htmldrop.app/dashboard/settings → API tokens.

Install details

Fastest path: click ➜ Add to Cursor above — it's a deep link that opens Cursor and installs the htmldrop MCP server with one click, no config file editing required.

  1. Get an API token. Sign in at htmldrop.app/dashboard/settings → API tokens → Create token. Copy the hsk_live_… value (shown only once).
  2. Prefer manual config? Open .cursor/mcp.json in your project (or the global one at ~/.cursor/mcp.json) and paste the config above.
  3. Restart Cursor (or reload the window — Cmd+Shift+P → "Reload Window"). Cursor fetches the package on first use.

Try it

Open Cursor's chat and try any of these:

BuildBuild me a single-page sales dashboard with three KPI cards and a bar chart for fake Q1 SaaS data, then publish it to htmldrop.
ConvertTake the README.md in this repo and publish it as a clean documentation page on htmldrop.
One-pagerMake me a tasteful HTML landing page for a side project called "Hexamail" and publish it to htmldrop.

Troubleshooting

"No API token" error

Cursor didn't read your token. Verify the HTMLDROP_API_TOKEN env value in .cursor/mcp.json is the hsk_live_… string (not the friendly name you gave the token in the dashboard).

Cursor doesn't see the htmldrop tools

After editing .cursor/mcp.json, fully reload the window — Cursor caches the MCP tool list. Open Cursor's MCP settings panel to confirm htmldrop shows as connected.

"plan_limit" error in the chat

You've hit your plan's site cap (3 active drops on Free). Delete a drop in the dashboard or upgrade.

Want to verify the install worked?

In Cursor chat: "List my htmldrop sites." If the tool is wired up, Cursor calls htmldrop_list and replies with your drops.
