Voraussetzungen

Die vollständige Setup-Anleitung ist in den Connector eingebaut (im Store sichtbar, wenn du den Connector auswählst). Benötigte Umgebungsvariablen für diesen Connector:

FRONT_API_TOKEN

Schritt 1 — Zugangsdaten holen

frontapp.com/reference).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to Front → Settings (top-right) → Developers → API Tokens → Create API Token.
  2. Pick scope: private (full-access to all inboxes/conversations) or scoped to a specific inbox/role.
  3. Copy the token. Set FRONT_API_TOKEN.

Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${FRONT_API_TOKEN}.

Front's tile model:

  • Conversation = a thread between your team and one or more contacts. Has status (open/archived/spam/deleted), assignee, inbox, tags.
  • Message = each inbound/outbound email, SMS, chat, etc. within a conversation.
  • Contact = an external entity (a customer).

Schritt 2 — Adapter installieren

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Schritt 3 — Connector in Cursor hinzufügen

Cursor liest MCP-Server aus ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Füge diesen Eintrag hinzu:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Hole deinen MCP API Key aus AnythingMCP → Profil → MCP API Keys → Neuer Key.
  2. Speichern und Cursor neu starten.
  3. Cursor → Einstellungen → MCP öffnen und prüfen, ob Front als "Connected" gelistet ist.
  4. Chatten — alle Front-Tools sind aufrufbar.
