Setup:

  1. Sign in to https://app.usefathom.com → top-right avatar → Account → API Keys → Generate a new API key.
  2. Pick scopes: at minimum 'sites:read' + 'aggregations:read'.
  3. Set FATHOM_API_TOKEN.

Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${FATHOM_API_TOKEN}.

Aggregations API: the most useful — flexible querying like Stripe Sigma. Pass entity, entity_id, aggregates, date_grouping, filters, etc. Returns rows of data.

Step 2 — Install the adapter

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

Step 3 — Add the connector in Cursor

Cursor reads MCP servers from ~/.cursor/mcp.json. Add this entry:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "url": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key.
  2. Save the file and restart Cursor.
  3. Open Cursor → Settings → MCP to verify Fathom Analytics is listed and "Connected".
  4. Start chatting — all Fathom Analytics tools are now invokable.
