Sync user identity data in Cursor

Feed live account details into your codebase by invoking `get_user`. You get real responses that you can use to build logic without hardcoding mock data. Use `list_users` to fetch active records when you need to write tests against actual production-style identity objects.

Check security configurations in Cursor

Query `get_security_settings` to read your current environment variables directly into your editor. It helps you catch misconfigurations before you commit. Use `get_audit_logs` to review past events while you write security-focused code. It keeps your context relevant and accurate.

Query organization structures in Cursor

Run `list_organizations` or `list_roles` to understand your backend hierarchy while you work on auth-related features. It saves you from constant tab switching. Fetch resource definitions with `list_resources` to ensure your code handles permissions exactly as they exist in your platform.

Setup guide

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

Common questions about Authing MCP in Cursor

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root. Define the server path there, and enable agent mode to start executing tools.

The server uses a secure, ephemeral connection. No identity data is stored by the MCP Server or cached on our infrastructure.

Yes, the agent can call any of the ten available tools to fetch live data. It writes code based on what it actually sees in your account.

You can commit your .cursor/mcp.json to your repository. This ensures your entire team uses the exact same identity toolset.

It only touches the specific identity metadata you request. We never touch your raw user passwords or secret keys.
