Yes, you can use the listbydate tool inside the Cursor chat. Specify the date range to find the exact meeting document you need.

Generate code from Granola transcripts in Cursor

The `get_transcript` tool pulls the exact technical requirements discussed in your meetings directly into Cursor. Your editor's agent reads the raw transcript to write code that matches what the client actually requested. This workflow bypasses manual spec writing entirely. Cursor uses the raw conversation text to build precise functions, saving you from interpreting vague summaries.

Map code tasks to Granola action items

The `get_action_items` tool extracts concrete deliverables from your Granola meeting notes to populate your Cursor workspace. You can instantly turn these items into code comments or issue tracker drafts. If you need to check who agreed to a technical decision, call `get_participants` right from the editor. Cursor correlates these details to keep your commit messages and documentation accurate.

Query meeting context using this MCP Server

The `search_documents` tool lets you run full-text searches across all Granola notes directly from the Cursor chat sidebar. You can find past discussions about specific API endpoints or database migrations without leaving your editor. Combine this with `get_content` to fetch the complete structured document via this MCP integration. Cursor reads the file to understand the architecture decisions your team made last week.

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
