Give Cursor a memory your team shares.
A decision made in a chat with Claude or ChatGPT can reach your editor. Tell any AI once, and Cursor knows.
Why Cursor needs a shared memory
Cursor's rules live in each project's files. Anything you decide somewhere else, like in a chat with Claude or ChatGPT, never reaches them.
- Across projects.One memory for every repository you open, not a copy of the rules in each one.
- Across apps.Something saved from Claude or ChatGPT is there when Cursor needs it.
- Across your team.A convention one person saves is one every teammate's Cursor can find, with its source.
Connect Cursor in a few minutes
- Sign in to Contexel. Your private workspace is ready right away.
- Add Contexel to Cursor in one click. Cursor opens and asks you to confirm. Add to Cursor
- Sign in with your browser when Cursor asks. There is no key or code to copy.
No button, or it did not work? Open the console's Connect tab, choose Cursor, and follow what it shows you. Your Contexel address is https://contexel.ai/mcp.
Optional: make it more reliable. On the console's Connect tab, choose Cursor, copy the request under 2. Make your AI use it, and paste it into Cursor's chat. Cursor writes a short rules file so it checks Contexel.
Then just talk to it
Once those steps are done, there's nothing new to learn. Ask your AI to remember something, and ask about it later from any connected app.
You, in ClaudeRemember for the team: all new API endpoints go under /v2 and return JSON errors.
Later, a teammate in CursorAdd an endpoint that lists invoices.
Questions
Does this replace Cursor rules?
No. Keep your rules for things specific to one project. Use Contexel for what your team knows across projects and apps.
Does my code get uploaded?
No. Contexel only stores what you or your AI choose to save as a memory. It does not read your repository.
Who can see what I save?
You, and the people you share with. In a team or family account, anyone who manages the account can also open your private workspace, and you are told. Contexel holds the encryption key, so it could read it too.
Using other AI apps too?
It's the same memory everywhere. Connect as many apps as you like.
