Write Code with Live API Data

Your agent can use the `geolocate_ip` tool to get location data for an IP address. Then, it can write a user profile object in your code that's already populated with that real country and city. No more filling things in with 'TODO' or mock data. Same goes for financial code. Tell your agent to use `get_exchange_rate` to fetch the current USD to EUR rate. It will generate a function or a test case using the actual, up-to-the-minute exchange rate. This makes your scratchpads and initial drafts much more realistic.

A Cursor-Ready MCP Server for Global Apps

This MCP server is perfect for building apps that work across different countries. Need to build a feature that's aware of local time? Your agent can use `get_timezone` to fetch a location's current time and UTC offset, then write the code to handle it. If you're building a scheduling tool, you can tell the agent to 'get all public holidays for Germany in 2025' using `get_holidays`. It will pull the list and can then help you write logic to block those dates in a calendar. All this happens right in your editor.

Clean and Validate Data in Your Editor

The `validate_email` tool checks if an email can actually receive mail. Highlight a list of test emails in a file, and ask your Cursor agent to check them. It will run the tool on each one and can then write the Python or JavaScript code to filter out the invalid ones. Working with business customers? The `validate_vat` tool checks if a European VAT number is correct and gives you back the associated company information. Your agent can use this to build and test a company verification function without you leaving your IDE.

Setup guide

Set up Abstract API 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 Abstract API 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 Abstract API transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Abstract API tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "abstract-api-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Common questions about Abstract API MCP in Cursor

With the MCP server configured, just instruct your agent in the chat. For example: 'Use `validate_vat` on this number: NL853745295B01, and show me the company details'. The agent will call the tool and return the info.

Project setup (.cursor/mcp.json) makes the tools available only for that specific project. A global setup (~/.cursor/mcp.json) makes the Abstract API tools available in any project you open with Cursor.

Yes, it's designed for it. Once you enable Agent mode, the agent can see and use all the Abstract API tools like `geolocate_ip` and `validate_email` to fetch data and write code.

Just ask it directly. Try a prompt like, 'What's the exchange rate from GBP to USD? Use that to write a function that converts 100 pounds to dollars.' The agent will use `get_exchange_rate` and generate the code.

Yes. When you ask your agent to validate an email address, only that address is sent to the Abstract API endpoint. The request runs in a secure Vinkius sandbox that is destroyed after your result is returned, and your data is never logged or stored.
