How to Use the Airbrake MCP in Cursor
Debug Airbrake errors and track deployments directly in Cursor while your AI agent writes the code to fix them.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Airbrake MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Airbrake to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Fix active Airbrake bugs directly inside Cursor
The `get_error_group` tool feeds live stack traces directly to your Cursor agent so it can locate the exact line of code that failed. Instead of guessing, your agent uses `list_error_groups` to prioritize the most frequent production crashes. This workflow means you write fixes based on real-time crash data rather than outdated logs. Your agent generates the patch and immediately verifies the context using `list_notices` to ensure no edge cases are missed.
Register deployments from your Cursor terminal
You use `track_deploy` to log your releases to the monitoring service right as you push code from Cursor. Before pushing, your agent queries `list_deploys` to confirm that your latest commits correspond with the registered deployment. This MCP tool configuration helps you correlate sudden spikes in errors with recent code changes. The `list_environments` tool ensures your agent knows whether it is looking at production bugs or staging noise.
Initialize monitoring with Cursor MCP Server
The `list_projects` tool lets your agent pull all your active monitoring environments into Cursor to set up your workspace config. If you need to check the status of your monitoring pipeline, `check_airbrake_status` verifies the connection instantly. This setup avoids configuration errors when onboarding new microservices. Your agent uses `get_project` to retrieve the correct project keys and injects them directly into your local environment variables.
