Connect AstrologyAPI MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect AstrologyAPI 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.
Build astrology features in Cursor with real API data
`get_planets_positions` feeds actual planetary coordinates straight to your Cursor agent while you write code. The agent calls this tool to understand the API's JSON output structure, letting it write accurate parsing code. You don't have to write mock objects or guess the payload structure. Your Cursor editor reads the live planetary positions to generate type-safe interfaces on the fly.
Calculate ashtakvarga scores with this MCP Server
`get_ashtakvarga_score` computes the numeric points for houses directly within your Cursor agent workflow. This tool gives your agent the exact numerical values needed to build custom chart evaluation algorithms. While editing your codebase, you can ask the agent to test its logic against live scores. The MCP Server returns the points instantly, letting you verify your math.
Generate timing logic using yoga and panchang tools
`get_yoga_analysis` identifies active planetary combinations directly inside your Cursor development environment. Your agent uses this tool to debug complex astrological calculation logic in your code. Your editor gets real-time tithi and nakshatra data to verify your UI components via this MCP integration.
