Dumpling AI MCP Server FAQ

How do I authenticate?

Set the DUMPLING_API_KEY environment variable to your Dumpling AI API key; it is required for all tools.

How do I install it for Claude Desktop?

Use Smithery: npx -y @smithery/cli install @Dumpling-AI/mcp-server-dumplingai --client claude, or run it directly with npx and the DUMPLING_API_KEY env var.

Does it work with Cursor?

Yes. Cursor 0.45.6+ is required. Add an mcpServers entry running npx -y mcp-server-dumplingai with the DUMPLING_API_KEY env var.

What if I run into issues on Windows?

Try the command cmd /c "set DUMPLING_API_KEY=your-api-key && npx -y mcp-server-dumplingai".
