Build stats dashboards with live MCP Server data

Writing a scouting app goes faster when your editor pulls real API responses. Cursor uses `get_player_stats` and `get_team_stats` to inject actual CS2 metrics into your React components. Your agent writes the frontend code based on the exact JSON structure it just fetched. You stop writing mock data entirely. By calling `get_match_detail`, the editor sees the full scoreboard telemetry. It formats the data tables perfectly because it already knows the exact schema.

Track the Top 500 inside Cursor

High-ELO applications need accurate ranking data from your MCP setup. Running `get_leaderboard` grabs the current Radiant and Global lists straight into your workspace. You can have the agent build a sorting algorithm against the actual top players. Live tracking works just as easily. The `get_live_matches` tool pulls ongoing games, letting you test real-time WebSocket or polling logic with active matches. It makes building live-updating UIs incredibly simple.

Analyze loadouts and map pools natively

Detailed analytics require granular inputs. Your MCP agent triggers `get_weapon_stats` to understand a player's proficiency layout per gun. You can then ask it to generate charts visualizing AWP versus AK-47 usage. Map performance is just as critical. Using `get_map_stats`, the editor fetches win rates for Dust II or Inferno. You get the raw numbers needed to build predictive models without leaving your IDE.

Setup guide

Set up 5E Arena MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the 5E Arena MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent 5E Arena transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the 5E Arena tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "5e-arena-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }

Common questions about 5E Arena MCP in Cursor

Create a configuration file in your project root. Add the Vinkius endpoint URL and your authentication token. Switch to Agent mode and start asking for CS2 stats.

Yes, it generates React or Vue components based on live responses. The agent pulls a match history and immediately writes the table layout to display it. You skip the stubbing phase completely.

It fetches the active bracket directly into your chat. You can use that data to populate a schedule view in your application. The dates and times are always current.

The built-in search tool handles partial strings. Your agent queries the database and returns a list of possible matches. You just tell it which one to use for the rest of the code.

Nothing from your local project gets sent to the game servers. The integration only requests external CS2 player performance scores and match telemetry. Vinkius drops the connection entirely once the payload delivers.
