How to Use the Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud API) MCP in Cursor
Code your infrastructure and deploy decentralized GPUs directly from your Cursor editor using live network context.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud API) MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud API) 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.
Write SDL manifests and deploy instantly in Cursor
Keep your focus entirely inside your code editor while setting up cloud infrastructure. When you write an SDL manifest file, Cursor reads your workspace context using this local MCP connection and calls `create_deployment` to push your hardware requirements directly to the network. The editor agent monitors the network for incoming bids using `list_bids` and lets you select the best provider configuration. Once you choose, Cursor calls `create_lease` to lock in your GPU hardware without you ever touching an external terminal.
Control live GPU deployments using the Cursor MCP Server
Debugging cloud workloads shouldn't force you to leave your code. Cursor uses `get_deployment` to fetch real-time state data and injects the live logs and container status directly into your active coding session. If your application needs more compute power, modify the configuration file in your editor and let Cursor run `update_deployment`. The agent updates the running instance on the fly, keeping your dev environment perfectly synced with your live cloud resources.
Keep your GPU nodes funded while coding
Prevent unexpected service interruptions during long-running model training jobs. Cursor monitors your escrow balances using the Cursor MCP toolset to run `get_deployment_settings` and alerts you right in your sidebar if your funds are running low. You can instruct the agent to run `add_deposit` to top up the escrow or execute `enable_auto_top_up` to handle funding automatically. This keeps your remote GPU instances running smoothly while you write code.
Set up Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud 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 Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud API) MCP
Cursor will create or open
.cursor/mcp.jsonin 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 Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud API) transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Akash Network (Decentralized GPU & Cloud API) tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.
