Install NIZZY for Cursor
One-click MCP install via Cursor deeplink, or a Mac binary that lands at a stable path (~/.nizzy/bin/nizzy). Stable and Dev can both be installed — they do not overwrite each other.
1. Stable
Supported release. MCP server nizzy, port 3000, workspace .nizzy/.
Fastest — npx (requires Node)
Deeplink adds a Cursor MCP server named nizzy (npx -y nizzy@latest). Installing Dev does not replace Stable. If the browser blocks cursor://, paste the JSON into Cursor Settings → MCP.

"mcpServers": {
"nizzy": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"nizzy@latest"
],
"env": {
"NIZZY_CHANNEL": "stable",
"NIZZY_PORT": "3000",
"NIZZY_REPORT_PORT": "4321",
"NIZZY_REPORT_SERVER_ENABLED": "true",
"NIZZY_CONTROL_PLANE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:8787",
"NIZZY_LICENSE_ENFORCEMENT": "true"
}
}
}
}No Node — Mac binary
Downloads the packaged runtime, installs to ~/.nizzy/bin/nizzy, then opens the Cursor MCP deeplink with that absolute path.
# Set NEXT_PUBLIC_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL, then: NIZZY_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL=https://cdn.example.com/nizzy \ NIZZY_CONTROL_PLANE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8787 \ bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://YOUR_SITE/install-macos.sh)"
After install, MCP command must be the absolute path (the shell script expands ~). Pair the device on /device.
Also install Dev
Bleeding-edge builds of the same product. MCP server nizzy-dev, port 3100, workspace .nizzy-dev/. Adds a second Cursor MCP entry — it does not replace Stable.
Fastest — npx (requires Node)
Deeplink adds a Cursor MCP server named nizzy-dev (npx -y -p nizzy nizzy-dev). Installing Dev does not replace Stable. If the browser blocks cursor://, paste the JSON into Cursor Settings → MCP.

Downloads the packaged runtime, installs to ~/.nizzy-dev/bin/nizzy-dev, then opens the Cursor MCP deeplink with that absolute path.
# Set NEXT_PUBLIC_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL, then: NIZZY_CHANNEL=dev \ NIZZY_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL=https://cdn.example.com/nizzy \ NIZZY_CONTROL_PLANE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8787 \ bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://YOUR_SITE/install-macos.sh)"
After install, MCP command must be the absolute path (the shell script expands ~). Pair the device on /device.
2. Optional: direct package download (Stable)
Prefer unpacking yourself? Grab the tarball, then run the installer with NIZZY_TARBALL=…, or point MCP at the launcher inside the archive.
Set NEXT_PUBLIC_DOWNLOAD_BASE_URL to enable download buttons (CDN hosting dist/*.tar.gz). Also host install-macos.sh there, or use the copy on this site at /install-macos.sh.
3. Pair the device
- Open Apps or run
nizzy_licenselogin. - Authorize the user code on /device.
- Workspace catalog syncs on the next daemon start.
