Inspect ActiveTrail campaigns inside Cursor

The `list_campaigns` tool pulls your sent and draft marketing campaigns directly into your coding workspace. This lets your editor read real campaign data instead of relying on mock API responses. You can write automated tests or build custom dashboards using actual production metrics. The MCP Server feeds this history straight to your agent, making integration debugging much faster.

Sync contacts during local development

The `list_contacts` tool retrieves your entire subscriber directory, while `list_groups` pulls active segments into your local context. You can use these tools to populate local development databases with genuine schema structures. Having actual segment names and contact fields inside Cursor prevents schema drift. Your agent can inspect the active lists to write precise validation logic for your signup forms.

Use an MCP Server to test signups and alerts

The `create_contact` tool adds new subscribers using email and personal details, and `send_sms` sends real-time text notifications. You can trigger these functions from the editor chat to test your webhook handlers. This eliminates the need to run external API clients to test your messaging endpoints. Run your code, ask Cursor to invoke the tool, and watch the contact get created or the text arrive on your phone.

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".

Add the ActiveTrail 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.
