+## MCP Server
+
+The [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction) is an open protocol that allows you to provide custom tools
+to agentic LLM clients, like [Claude for Desktop](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-for-desktop/overview), [Cursor](https://www.cursor.com/), [Windsurf](https://windsurf.com/), etc...
+
+The Trigger.dev CLI can expose an MCP server and enable you interact with Trigger.dev in agentic LLM workflows. For example, you can use
+it to trigger tasks via natural language, view task runs, view logs, debug issues with task runs, etc...
+
+### Starting the Trigger.dev MCP Server
+
+To start the Trigger.dev MCP server, simply pass the `--mcp` flag to the `dev` command:
+
+```bash
+trigger dev --mcp
+```
+
+By default it runs on port `3333`. You can change this by passing the `--mcp-port` flag:
+
+```bash
+trigger dev --mcp --mcp-port 3334
+```
+
+### Configuring your MCP client
+
+This depends on what tool you are using. For Cursor, the configuration is in the [.cursor/mcp.json](../../.cursor/mcp.json) file
+and should be good to go as long as you use the default MCP server port.
+
+Check out [Cursor's docs](https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol) for further details.
+
+Tip: try out [Cursor's YOLO mode](https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol#yolo-mode) for a seamless experience :D
