Quick Start

Pollo MCP Server implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) specification and can be used as a server to interact with MCP-compatible clients (such as Cursor).

Quickstart with Cursor

1. Get your API key from Pollo.ai.
2. Make sure that you already installed Node.js and npm

Go to Cursor → Preferences → Cursor Settings → MCP Tools → New MCP Server, add config
