Common questions

Is CedarAI Data Depot safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.2) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

cedar-mcp

Cursor plugin for CedarAI Data Depot. The plugin identifier is cedar-mcp.

It connects Cursor to Cedar ARMS through Cedar's remote Model Context Protocol server.

After Cedar login, you can list the carriers you can access and inspect read-only railcar inventory, equipment history, work orders, bookings, customers, charges, invoices, quotes, and note metadata. This connector cannot create, update, move, or delete ARMS records. Mutations belong in the ARMS UI.

Install

  1. Open Cursor Settings → Plugins (or the Cursor Marketplace).
  2. Search for cedar-mcp or CedarAI Data Depot.
  3. Click Install, then complete Cedar sign-in (OAuth).

You can also add the MCP URL by hand under Cursor Settings → MCP:

https://mcp.arms.cedarai.com/mcp
GitHub Copilot / VS Code

After this server is published to the official MCP Registry, search @mcp cedar in the VS Code Extensions view, or add it by hand in .vscode/mcp.json:

{

"servers": { "cedar-mcp": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.arms.cedarai.com/mcp" } } }

Then use Auth on the server and complete Cedar sign-in. Registry name: io.github.cedarai/cedar-mcp.

MCP

{

"mcpServers": { "cedar-mcp": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.arms.cedarai.com/mcp" } } }

Auth is OAuth 2.0 against Cedar Accounts. Cursor prompts for Cedar sign-in when the plugin connects. There is no API key.

Pass a railroad road mark as carrier_code (for example TRLD) on catalog tools. Call list_accessible_carriers first if you are not sure which carriers you can access.

Data handling

Each MCP request uses the signed-in user's existing ARMS permissions. Installing this plugin does not grant access to additional carriers or records.

Tool results are returned to Cursor so it can answer the user's request. Cedar minimizes sensitive fields before returning high-volume and free-text results, including street addresses, postal codes, email addresses, telephone numbers, note body text and attachments, invoice audit comments and documents, and selected tender and charge fields. Inventory responses are paginated and capped at 50 records per call.

Review the MCP privacy addendum and MCP data handling documentation before connecting.
