How to Use the AgentMail MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I connect AgentMail to my Cursor editor?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project's root directory. Add the AgentMail MCP server configuration from Vinkius, and your agent will have access to the tools immediately.

Q: Can my agent in Cursor read email content and use it?

Absolutely, that's the whole point. Your agent can use getthread to read an email's body and then insert that text, or data from it, directly into the code you're working on.

Let your agent in Cursor read, write, and reply to emails without you leaving the editor.

Email Inboxes for Your Agent

Give your coding agent an email address. Use `create_inbox` to instantly provision a new inbox, which your agent can use to receive notifications, alerts, or test emails. Your agent can see every inbox it has access to with `list_inboxes` and tear them down with `delete_inbox` when they're no longer needed. It's all managed through chat, right inside Cursor.

Inject Email Content into Code

This is where it gets interesting. Your agent can `list_threads` to find an email, `get_thread` to read the whole conversation, and even `get_attachment` to pull down a file. The real power in Cursor is that the agent can then use that email content directly in the code it's writing. Imagine getting an API key via email and having the agent automatically read it and inject it into your configuration file.

An MCP Server for Email in Cursor

Your agent can act on information without you switching windows. Tell it to `send_message` to fire off a build status update or `reply_to_message` to respond to a bug report alert. You can also have it `forward_message` with context to another team member. This turns your editor into a command center, letting your agent handle routine email communication while you focus on the code.

Setup guide

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

Common questions about AgentMail MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project's root directory. Add the AgentMail MCP server configuration from Vinkius, and your agent will have access to the tools immediately.

Absolutely, that's the whole point. Your agent can use `get_thread` to read an email's body and then insert that text, or data from it, directly into the code you're working on.

You can set up workflows where your agent gets a webhook notification email, parses it with `get_thread`, and then takes action. For example, it could trigger a script or draft a response with `reply_to_message` based on the email's content.

Yes. You can create different inboxes for different projects using `create_inbox`. Your agent can then use `list_inboxes` to see all of them and you can direct it to work with a specific one by its ID.

Vinkius processes your email content—the bodies and any attachments—in a zero-trust MCP server environment. The server is ephemeral, so your data is wiped after the operation. Nothing is logged or stored long-term.
