Questions

What is the Trail MCP server?

Issue tracker and durable project memory for your coding agent, scoped to the folder you open. It is made by usetrail.dev and listed in the official MCP Registry as dev.usetrail/trail. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI apps like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor use outside tools.

How do I add Trail to Claude?

In Claude Code, run: claude mcp add trail -- npx -y usetrail@1.29.1

How do I add Trail to ChatGPT?

ChatGPT only connects to remote MCP servers, and Trail runs on your own computer. Use it from Claude, Cursor or another app that runs local servers.

How do I add Trail to Cursor?

Open Cursor settings, go to MCP, choose "Add new MCP server" (or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json) and add: { "mcpServers": { "trail": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "usetrail@1.29.1" ] } } }

Does Trail work right now?

It runs on your own computer, so it works once you install it. There is no remote server for us to check.
