What is the Runn MCP Server?
Integrate your conversational AI natively with Runn, the premier real-time resource planning and forecasting platform. This integration enables your assistant to pull essential project metadata, capacity bottlenecks, people configurations, team allocations, and timesheet metrics directly into your sessions.
What you can do
- Analyze Projects & Resources — Extract ongoing engagement details, milestones, and client associations by querying lists natively (
list_projects,list_clients). Request detailed readouts of individual operational scopes (get_project). - Audit Roles & Assignments — Find exactly who is assigned to what phase, mapping active allocations accurately (
list_assignments,list_phases). Consult team members' details (list_people,get_person) or review globally defined roles (list_roles). - Review Budgets & Actuals — Safely extract reported operational logs (
list_actuals) to compare planned work versus billed hours. Account for non-working days naturally via the holidays lists (list_holidays).
How it works
- Install the core Runn integration into your secure workspace.
- Log into your primary Runn account online. Navigate to Settings and generate a permanent API access string.
- Securely provide this exact
Runn API Tokeninside the integration's configuration section. - Interact directly: "Who is currently assigned to the internal design project according to Runn?"
Who is this for?
- Project Managers — Quickly identify scheduling conflicts or resource constraints using conversational inquiries instead of clicking through dashboards.
- Agency Operations — Extract billed actuals versus forecasted hours instantly to manage client engagements.
- Executives — Easily request status updates and milestone tracking summaries on overarching initiatives.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Runn into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Runn and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 12 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
Can the AI add new resources, approve timesheets, or assign projects?
No, this connector is constructed strictly logically explicitly purely as a read-only data extraction protocol naturally seamlessly securely flawlessly organically natively seamlessly explicitly efficiently. It pulls records, reporting scopes organically completely accurately carefully tightly mapped optimally.
What data can the AI retrieve from Runn?
The integration can list projects, people, roles, teams, milestones, and clients. It provides a comprehensive read-only view of your resource planning data.
Can I see project budgets and utilization rates?
Yes. By querying project details, the AI can surface budget allocations, scheduled hours, and utilization metrics for each project in your Runn workspace.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
