Our reading of Cargo, from the data

Cargo is a crm & marketing MCP server from getcargohq, listed in the official MCP Registry.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

It runs either locally over stdio or as a hosted endpoint and needs one secret (CARGO_API_TOKEN); use a scoped, least-privilege key.

Install Cargo MCP server

claude mcp add cli-getcargohq -e CARGO_API_TOKEN='<cargo-api-token>' -- npx -y @cargo-ai/cli mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cli-getcargohq": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@cargo-ai/cli",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CARGO_API_TOKEN": "<cargo-api-token>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cli-getcargohq": {
      "command": "npx",

        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CARGO_API_TOKEN": "<cargo-api-token>"
      }
    }
  }
}
