Find a mentor from the chat you are already in. This plugin connects Claude, Cursor, Grok, and other MCP clients to MentorCruise's public MCP server and ships a playbook for interviewing you and searching the live directory.
Search works without signing in. Applying, messaging, paying, and booking wait on Connect so we know it is you.
- MCP server (
https://mentorcruise.com/mcp): search mentors, read public profiles, list plans and sessions. After Connect: apply, message, pay from credits, and book calls. - Skill (
find-mentor): a short interview, thensearch_mentors/get_mentor_profile. It will not apply or pay unless you ask. - Command (
/find-mentor): jump straight into that search. - Skill (
setup): how Connect works when a write tool needs a mentee account.
It does not include the staff Admin MCP.
Once this plugin is in the Claude plugin directory:
claude plugin install mentorcruiseOr add the MCP by itself:
claude mcp add --transport http mentorcruise https://mentorcruise.com/mcpOn claude.ai, Cowork, or Claude Desktop you can also use Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste https://mentorcruise.com/mcp. The directory listing uses the same URL.
To try this repo locally in Claude Code:
claude --plugin-dir /path/to/mentorcruise-plugin- Open Settings → Plugins.
- Search for MentorCruise, or install from this repo once it is listed on the Cursor Marketplace.
- Click Install. Search works after that. When you apply, Cursor will ask you to Connect.
To try it locally before marketplace listing:
ln -s /path/to/mentorcruise-plugin ~/.cursor/plugins/local/mentorcruiseThen Developer: Reload Window.
You can also add the MCP by itself in ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mentorcruise": {
"url": "https://mentorcruise.com/mcp"
}
}
}On grok.com/connectors: New Connector, Custom. Paste https://mentorcruise.com/mcp. Or install this plugin from the xAI plugin marketplace once the listing is live.
Any MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP can use the same URL. ChatGPT: the published plugin, or Developer mode with that URL.

"mentorcruise": {

}No API key. Discovery tools (search_mentors, get_mentor_profile, get_sessions_or_services, create_booking_link, list_categories) plus register_mentee / verify_email run without a token. Write tools require OAuth Connect; the host then sends Authorization: Bearer.
When the assistant asks you to Connect, finish it in the browser: email, the check, then the 6-digit code on that page. You do not paste the code back into the chat. If you already have a mentee account, use the same email.

No other hosts. No telemetry from this repo. The MCP server stores a one-way hash of the caller IP for abuse prevention, as documented at https://mentorcruise.com/docs/mcp.md.
None at install. Search is anonymous. Apply / pay / book need a mentee session from Connect (OAuth 2.1, PKCE S256, dynamic client registration). The plugin does not store tokens; the host does.
I'm an L4 backend engineer at a Series B startup, looking to move toward staff. Find me 3 mentors who've done that, prefer European timezones, budget around $250/month.
The assistant should call MentorCruise tools and return results with profile links.
