Point Cursor at the hosted MCP endpoint or run the open-source package locally — either way, marketplace search lands in your editor's AI.
Cursor supports MCP servers in its settings (Cursor Settings → MCP). You can add Secondhand MCP as a remote server (hosted, OAuth) or as a local stdio server via npx. Handy for price research without leaving your editor.
Takes about two minutes, once
Add to Cursor Add to VS Code
Opens the editor with the server pre-filled; confirm and sign in. Using Claude Code instead? claude mcp add --transport http secondhand https://secondhandmcp.com/mcp
Go to Cursor Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server (or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json directly).
Add a remote server with URL https://secondhandmcp.com/mcp — Cursor will run the OAuth sign-in flow in your browser. Free tier included.

}Requires Node.js; add eBay API keys via an env block if you want eBay search.In Cursor's AI chat, ask something like "Find used 27-inch 4K monitors under $250 and summarize the best three."
Remote is simpler (no Node/Chrome needed, OAuth sign-in, free tier). Local is fully free and runs on your machine; Depop/Poshmark need Chrome installed.
Yes — Cursor handles remote MCP OAuth in the browser. Sign in once with email or Google and the connection persists.
Mostly convenience: price-checking parts and equipment, researching resale values, or scripting against structured listing data while you work.
