# Cursor and VS Code

Connect either editor to Bisque over MCP.

Page: https://bisque.cloud/docs/present/works-with/cursor-vscode
Install: `npx skills add bisque-cloud/presenter`

`npx skills add bisque-cloud/presenter` copies the Agent Skills into any agent's skills directory. In Claude Code you can install them as a plugin instead, from a terminal: `claude plugin marketplace add bisque-cloud/presenter`, then `claude plugin install presenter@bisque-cloud`. The plugin's skills are `/presenter:present`, `/presenter:watch` and `/presenter:video`.

Cursor and VS Code connect to Bisque over MCP rather than installing the
skills. Ask either editor for a presentation and you get back the same watch
URL. Bisque narrates on its side, so there is no speech model to download.

## Connect

One click adds the server to your editor:

- [Add to VS Code](https://vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?name=bisque&config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fbisque.cloud%2Fpresentations%2Fmcp%22%7D)
- [Add to Cursor](https://cursor.com/install-mcp?name=bisque&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2Jpc3F1ZS5jbG91ZC9wcmVzZW50YXRpb25zL21jcCJ9)

Each adds a server called `bisque` pointing at
`https://bisque.cloud/presentations/mcp`. The editor walks you through sign-in
the first time you use it: the server asks for it, you approve in a browser,
and the editor holds the connection from then on.

Any other MCP client takes the same URL over streamable HTTP.
`https://bisque.today/mcp` is the same server. It is listed in the MCP
registry as `cloud.bisque/presentations` and `today.bisque/presentations`.

## What to ask for

Point at something in your editor and say who is watching.

> Make a two-minute presentation of this pull request for the reviewers.

> Present the architecture in this folder for a new engineer.

> What does https://bisque.today/p/nick/q3-review say about the budget?

The agent reads the material, writes the slides and the script, publishes, and
hands you the link once the narration has finished. Ask again with a change and
it republishes at the same URL.

## What the connection can do

Make a presentation, check whether it has finished, list the ones you have
published, see how many people watched one, and read any shared presentation
back as text. The full list of tools, and how to add the server by hand, is on
the [MCP page](/docs/mcp).

## What differs from the skills

With the skills, your machine narrates. Over MCP, Bisque does, so the first
publish involves no download and the presentation can't be rendered to an MP4
from the editor; the `video` skill does that, on a Mac.

## Where it fits

For what to ask for and how to change a presentation, see
[present](/docs/present). This page is only about reaching the same thing
from an editor.
