Introduction

Cursor is one of the leading AI-powered code editors. It is built to help developers write, understand, and refactor code faster with AI assistance built directly into the editor.

And in this guide, I will explain the easiest and most secure way to connect your Gamma account to Cursor via Composio Connect, so it can create a pitch deck for a startup idea, generate an interactive onboarding presentation, summarize a research paper as slides, and more without ever putting your account credentials at risk.

Why Composio?

  • 1,000+ SaaS toolkits out of the box. Skip the work of building and maintaining integrations, Composio gives you instant access to a vast catalog of pre-built connectors.
  • One MCP server for every app. Connect any of your applications on demand through a single endpoint, rather than juggling a separate server for each app.
  • Smart, context-aware tool loading. Unlike traditional MCP servers that dump every available tool into the LLM context window, Composio searches for and loads only the tools relevant to the task at hand. A remote CLI workbench lets LLMs compose these tools into workflows for complex automation.

Connect Gamma to Cursor

Option 1

Click on this button.

↗Install in Cursor

Option 2

Add to your Cursor mcp.json

If option 1 does not work, do it manually.

Open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global config) and add the following configuration:

bash
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "composio": {
      "url": "https://connect.composio.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Authorize in your browser

Restart Cursor, then click "Connect" next to Composio in MCP Tools settings.

Connect your Gamma account

Back in Cursor, ask the agent to connect to Gamma or give it any Gamma-related task.

For example, ask it to:

  • "Create a pitch deck for a startup idea"
  • "Generate an interactive onboarding presentation"
  • "Summarize a research paper as slides"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access to Gamma.

That is it. Composio tools are now available in Cursor, and your Gamma account is ready to use.

What is the Gamma MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Gamma MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Gamma account. It provides structured and secure access to Gamma’s AI-powered content creation platform, so your agent can generate new presentations, monitor generation progress, and retrieve finished files on your behalf.

  • AI-driven presentation generation: Instantly create beautiful, interactive decks or documents through simple prompts, letting your agent handle the heavy lifting.
  • Automated content creation: Ask your agent to produce engaging summaries, reports, or educational material as shareable Gamma presentations.
  • Real-time generation status tracking: Have your agent monitor the progress of each presentation request and keep you updated on completion status.
  • Direct retrieval of generated files: Let your agent fetch download URLs for finished Gamma files, making it easy to share or embed them anywhere.

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Gamma MCP?

With a standalone Gamma MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Gamma tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Gamma and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Can I use Tool Router MCP with Cursor?

Yes, you can. Cursor fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Gamma tools.

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Gamma while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Gamma scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Gamma data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
