Evidence:
- [MCP-001](https://govna.io/solutions/security-leaders#MCP-001)
- [AUD-001](https://govna.io/solutions/security-leaders#AUD-001)

Endpoint: `https://agw.govna.io/mcp`

Govna exposes this Streamable HTTP endpoint behind OAuth and exact consent
([MCP-001](/solutions/security-leaders#MCP-001)).

1. Create `.cursor/mcp.json` for a project, or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` for all
   projects.
2. Add the remote Streamable HTTP server entry shown here.
3. Reload Cursor and finish Govna OAuth and consent in the browser.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "govna": {
      "url": "https://agw.govna.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Then, for every client: Govna opens in the browser. Sign in, choose
identities, tools, and duration, then approve. An audit intent is committed
before your first dispatched call, or the call is denied rather than run
un-audited ([AUD-001](/solutions/security-leaders#AUD-001)).
