Height + Cursor
Drive Height (modern AI-native project management) from any AI agent: tasks, lists, fields, users, activities. 9 tools, API-key Bearer auth.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
HEIGHT_API_KEY
Step 1 — Get credentials
app/api/docs).
Setup:
- Sign in to Height → top-right avatar → Settings → API & webhooks → Generate API key.
- Set
HEIGHT_API_KEY.
Authentication: Authorization: api-key ${HEIGHT_API_KEY} (literal api-key prefix, NOT Bearer).
Tasks are the primary object. Each task has status, name, description, assignees, dueDate, listIds[], fields (custom), parentTaskId (for subtasks).
Lists: how tasks are organized (similar to ClickUp lists or Linear projects). A task can belong to multiple lists.
Custom fields: defined at the workspace level. Reference via fields object {fieldId: value}.
Pagination: cursor-based via ?cursor=....
…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)
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" }
}
}
}
- Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key.
- Save the file and restart Cursor.
- Open Cursor → Settings → MCP to verify
Heightis listed and "Connected". - Start chatting — all
Heighttools are now invokable.
