Does not work with Cursor Editor

[Molnfront]

I tried to use it with Cursor on Mac Book Pro M1:

All MCP has tools but not electron:

{
"mcpServers": {
"decent-sampler-drums": {
"name": "decent-sampler-drums",
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@dandeliongold/mcp-decent-sampler-drums"
],
"transport": {
"type": "stdio"
}
},
"snyk": {
"command": "npx -y snyk@latest mcp -t stdio",
"env": {},
"args": []
},
"electron": {
"command": "npx -y electron-mcp-server",
"args": [],
"transport": {
"type": "stdio"
},
"env": {
"SECURITY_LEVEL": "balanced",
"SCREENSHOT_ENCRYPTION_KEY": "your-32-byte-hex-string-here"
}
}
}
}

I git cloned it local and then configured and installed:

npm install
npm warn deprecated inflight@1.0.6: This module is not supported, and leaks memory. Do not use it. Check out lru-cache if you want a good and tested way to coalesce async requests by a key value, which is much more comprehensive and powerful.
npm warn deprecated glob@7.2.3: Glob versions prior to v9 are no longer supported
npm warn deprecated boolean@3.2.0: Package no longer supported. Contact Support at https://www.npmjs.com/support for more info.
