Automate IP checks in Cursor

Invoke `check_ip_address` while coding to validate suspicious logs. The tool returns the abuse score directly into your editor context. This stops you from context switching. Your agent reads the result and helps you write code that handles the IP accordingly.

Review threat lists inside Cursor

Trigger `get_abuse_blacklist` to load current high-risk IPs into your active file. You can compare these IPs against your own access logs. Your agent analyzes this data to suggest security patches. It makes spotting malicious traffic part of your standard workflow.

Deep dive into reports with Cursor

Execute `get_ip_abuse_reports` to fetch detailed logs for an IP you're investigating. You see exactly what kind of activity was flagged. This provides the evidence you need to build better filters. It keeps your logic grounded in real-time threat data.

Setup guide

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