Installation & Setup
Complete guide to get this MCP server running in your environment
Before You Start
There are two ways to add an MCP server to Cursor and Claude Desktop App:
- Globally: Available in all of your projects by adding it to the global MCP settings file.
- Per Project: Available only within a specific project by adding it to the project's MCP settings file.
Cursor IDE
Adding an MCP Server to Cursor Globally
- Go to **Cursor Settings > MCP** and click **Add new global MCP server**.
- This will open the `~/.cursor/mcp.json` file.
- Add your MCP server configuration like the following:
{
"mcpServers": {
"cursor-rules-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"cursor-rules-mcp"
]
}
}
}Claude Desktop
Adding an MCP Server to Claude Desktop App Globally
- Go to **Claude Settings > MCP Servers** and click **Add Global MCP Server**.
- This will open the `~/.claude/mcp.json` file (or you can navigate there manually).
- Add your MCP server configuration like the following:
{
"mcpServers": {
"cursor-rules-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"cursor-rules-mcp"
]
}
}
}Step-by-Step Setup
Detailed instructions to get everything running
Visit the GitHub releases page: https://github.com/gbrigandi/mcp-server-wazuh/releases.
Either download the pre-built binary for your operating system or build the server from source using Rust:
- Install Rust (https://rust-lang.org/tools/install).
- Clone the repo using
git clone https://github.com/gbrigandi/mcp-server-wazuh.git. - Navigate to the folder:
cd mcp-server-wazuhand runcargo build --release.
Configure the .env file with Wazuh API settings (e.g., WAZUH_HOST, WAZUH_USER, WAZUH_PASS).
Start the server with the binary or via cargo run. Leverage JSON-RPC tools for integration or optional HTTP endpoints for broader connectivity.
