Details
From the project README
Soundcheck for Cursor
Cursor plugin that connects Agent to Soundcheck — live-event staffing for gigs, crew, setlists, call lists, and document ingest. Headline: the Soundcheck member MCP (https://mcp.soundchecklive.io/mcp) — sign in with OAuth, no API keys, and run your org's gigs, crew, setlists, and settlement from your agent. A secondary no-login public MCP is included only as a fallback for reviewers and discovery.
Smithery: https://smithery.ai/servers/steven-pd2q/soundcheck
Install
Cursor Marketplace (when listed) — install Soundcheck from the Cursor Marketplace, then connect the MCP server with OAuth when prompted.
Local test (before / without Marketplace listing)
mkdir -p ~/.cursor/plugins/local
ln -s /path/to/this-repo ~/.cursor/plugins/local/soundcheck
Reload the window (Developer: Reload Window), then open Customize and confirm the plugin, skills, and MCP server appear.
Connect (OAuth, no API keys)
This plugin ships a Streamable HTTP MCP config. Cursor infers transport from url. Authentication is OAuth 2.0 (RFC 9728 Protected Resource Metadata) — you do not paste tokens or Bearer headers.
Documented member connect URL (used in mcp.json):
https://mcp.soundchecklive.io/mcp
Secondary — public no-login fallback for reviewers and discovery (packaged as soundcheck-public):
https://mcp.soundchecklive.io/public/mcp
Endpoints
| Server | URL | Auth |
|---|---|---|
soundcheck (member, primary) | https://mcp.soundchecklive.io/mcp | OAuth 2.0 via Soundcheck sign-in (accounts.soundchecklive.io). No API keys. |
soundcheck-public (secondary, no-login fallback) | https://mcp.soundchecklive.io/public/mcp | None (no login) |
Domains: soundchecklive.io, mcp.soundchecklive.io, accounts.soundchecklive.io.
Sample test task — /mcp (member): sign in when prompted, then ask: "List my Soundcheck organizations and show upcoming events for the first one." (expects get_me → list_organizations → list_events).
Sample test task — /public/mcp (no login): ask: "What would a 150-guest wedding in Austin with a DJ and sound tech cost?" (expects quote_event with a SYNTHETIC illustrative range).
Reviewer notes
A reviewer test account is provided privately in the marketplace submission form so reviewers can sign into the member MCP (soundcheck, /mcp) and exercise the full experience. soundcheck-public is only a no-login fallback. No credentials are stored in this repository. Gated writes (messages, invites, settle, imports) return confirmation_required and do nothing until confirmed.
See MCP server docs and MCP discovery.
What you get
| Piece | Role |
|---|---|
MCP soundcheck | Member tools for events, crew, setlists, ingest, messaging, imports |
Skill staff-a-live-event | Create and staff a gig end-to-end |
Skill ingest-a-gig | Batch → add docs → review → gated commit |
Skill clone-workspace | Export → preview UEF → gated import into an org you own |
Consequential writes (invite_org_member, settle_event, send_message, broadcast_event_reminder, ingestion/import commits, and related gated tools) return confirmation_required. The agent should show you the summary and only resend with the token after you confirm.
Usage examples
Staff a Friday show
Staff Friday's show at the Blue Note — FOH, two A2s, and our usual opener set.
Agent runs staff-a-live-event: get_me / list_organizations → create_event → link or create venue → call list + apply_calllist_to_event → setlist → checklist.
Ingest an advance PDF
Ingest this advance PDF for Saturday's wedding and pull crew and load-in into the gig.
Agent runs ingest-a-gig: create_ingestion_batch → upload/add text → review proposals → gated commit only after you approve. If analysis fails, it reports that instead of inventing fields.
Clone last tour into a new org
Clone last tour's workspace into our new production-company org.
Agent runs clone-workspace: export_workspace on the source → preview_uef_import on the dest with commit off → import_uef only after you confirm. Destination must be an org you own.

Comments
New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
