Building a Lead Generation Agent in Cursor with MCP

Cursor isn't just for writing code. With the Leadloadz MCP server, you can find and verify B2B leads without ever leaving your editor — using the same Chat and Composer you already use to ship features.

This guide shows developers how to set it up and use it.

Why Cursor + Leadloadz for Lead Gen

• Never leave your IDE — prospect while you build.
• Natural language queries in Chat or Composer.
• Programmatic follow-through — have the agent find leads *and* write the script to act on them.

Step 1: Get Your API Token

1. Open the Leadloadz dashboard → API & Tokens.

2. Create a token and copy it.

Step 2: Add the MCP Server in Cursor

Open Settings → MCP → Add Server and provide:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "leadloadz": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@leadloadz/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "LEADLOADZ_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor will start the server and expose its tools to the agent.

Step 3: Use It in Cursor Chat

Open Chat (Cmd/Ctrl+L) and ask:

• "Find me 15 CTOs at healthtech startups."
• "Verify these emails and tell me which ones are valid."

Results appear inline, ready to copy or act on.

Step 4: Use It in Composer

Open Composer (Cmd/Ctrl+I) for multi-step work:

• "Find leads for my outreach campaign, then build a script that formats them as CSV for my sending tool."
