Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add jp-business-opportunity-mcp --url https://jp-biz-opportunity-62ko7b2uwa-an.a.run.app/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable jp-business-opportunity-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
