# Crustdata
Cursor plugin that connects agents to [Crustdata](https://crustdata.com) through Crustdata's official hosted [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server.
Search and enrich 1B+ people and 200M+ companies with live B2B data: people and company search, firmographic enrichment, contact data, job listings, and social posts, straight from the signed-in Crustdata account.
## Install
1. Open **Cursor Settings → Plugins**.
2. Search for **Crustdata**.
3. Click **Install**, then complete the Crustdata sign-in prompt.
Or run `/add-plugin crustdata` in chat.
## MCP
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"crustdata": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://install.crustdata.com/mcp"
}
}
}
```
Auth is OAuth against Crustdata. Cursor opens a Crustdata sign-in window the first time the plugin connects. There is no API key to configure.
## Before you connect
You need a Crustdata account with API credits. Most tools bill per result; company identification and the autocomplete tools are free. Agents can check the rate card with `crustdata_credit_costs` and the balance with `crustdata_credits_check`.
## What agents can do
| Category | Capabilities |
| --- | --- |
| People | Search 1B+ profiles by company, title, seniority, and region; enrich full profiles |
| Companies | Identify by name or domain, enrich firmographics, headcount, funding, and technographics |
| Contacts | Emails and phone numbers, up to 100 profile URLs per call |
| Jobs | Search job listings with filters and aggregations, or live-scrape a company's openings |
| Social | Pull social posts by person, company, or keyword |
| Alerts | Watchers via `crustdata_watcher_create` |
The hosted runtime is the source of truth for tool names and schemas.
## Included
- `rules/crustdata-tool-selection.mdc`: the tool-selection order published by the Crustdata MCP server
- `skills/crustdata-prospecting/`: Crustdata's recommended workflows
## Notes
- Tool calls run as the Crustdata user who authorizes the connection and draw from that account's credit balance.
- Database search tools (`*_search_db`) bill cheaply per result. The bundled rule steers agents to them before the live search variants.
