Ollang MCP in Cursor
Cursor is an AI-powered code editor built on VS Code. With Ollang MCP, you can manage translations directly from your development environment.
Setup
Open MCP settings
Go to Settings > Cursor Settings > Tools & MCP and click “New MCP Server”.
Add Ollang MCP
Create or edit .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:{
"mcpServers": {
"ollang": {
"url": "https://mcp.ollang.com/mcp"
}
}
}
Authenticate
When Cursor connects to the server, a browser window opens for Ollang sign-in. Complete the authentication and return to Cursor.
Start using Ollang
Open Cursor’s AI chat (Cmd+L / Ctrl+L) and start asking about translations.
Use Cases
Localize i18n files during development
When working on an internationalized app, you can translate JSON locale files on the fly:
Upload my en.json locale file to Ollang and create document translation
orders for fr.json, de.json, and ja.json. Use the source language "en".
Translate code documentation
Take the JSDoc comments from src/api/client.ts, upload them to Ollang
for document translation to Spanish, and show me the translated text.
Manage translation orders from your editor
Show me all my Ollang orders from the last week. Which ones are still
in progress?
Create translation guidelines for your project
Create a custom instruction in Ollang called "Mobile App UI" with content:
"Keep strings short for mobile screens. Use informal tone. Translate
UI abbreviations contextually. Keep brand names in English."
Multi-Server Configuration
Combine Ollang with other MCP servers for powerful workflows:
{
"mcpServers": {
"ollang": {
"url": "https://mcp.ollang.com/mcp"
},
"notion": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@notionhq/notion-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"NOTION_TOKEN": "ntn_XXXX"
}
}
}
}
Cursor supports both project-scoped (.cursor/mcp.json) and global (~/.cursor/mcp.json) MCP configurations. Use project-scoped for team projects and global for personal tools.
