MCP governance in Cursor with Stacklok

See how Stacklok + Cursor Hooks stops “rogue” MCP servers. ToolHive syncs approved servers into Cursor and enforces policy so agents can only run MCP tools deployed securely in ToolHive containers. Learn more → https://stacklok.com/blog/governing-m...

Security teams can’t govern MCP server sprawl when developers add servers ad hoc from Slack, GitHub, or wherever. That creates a visibility and policy gap: teams don’t know what’s running, what’s safe, or what agents are allowed to use.

In this demo, you’ll see how Stacklok solves MCP server governance with ToolHive, and how a Cursor Hook enforces policy directly at the agent level.

The Stacklok MCP Platform provides:
• Admin-curated MCP registry: a catalog of approved MCP servers (like an app store)
• Gateway: handles inbound traffic and applies org policies
• Secure runtime: runs MCP servers in isolated containers

Before Cursor runs any MCP server, the hook checks whether it’s managed by Stacklok ToolHive:
• If the server is ToolHive-managed, it’s allowed
• If it’s not ToolHive-managed, it’s blocked

The result: end-to-end assurance that Cursor agents only run approved, governed MCP servers.
