How to Use the BannerBite MCP in Cursor

Q: Can Cursor trigger a BannerBite video render while I code?

Yes, it can. The agent uses generatemedia to spin up a test asset so you can verify your template variables work before committing the code.

Q: How does Cursor know which BannerBite templates I have?

The editor executes listprojects in the background. It reads your live workspace data and suggests the correct project IDs while you type.

Q: Will this help me write the polling logic for my app?

Yes, the agent inspects the output of getrender to see the exact status strings the API returns. It writes the polling function based on live data, not generic examples.

Perplexity

Write media pipelines in Cursor

Building integrations usually requires keeping API docs open on a second monitor. Cursor Agent changes that by reading your live BannerBite workspace. It calls `list_projects` to pull your actual template IDs and injects them straight into your typescript definitions. When you need to map specific variables, the agent runs `get_project` and `list_bites`. It sees exactly which text fields and image placeholders exist in your scenes, then writes the exact payload structure required to trigger them.

Automate your BannerBite MCP Server calls

Writing polling logic for async video renders is tedious. Tell Cursor to build a status checker, and it uses `list_renders` to understand the response format. The AI writes the exact while-loop you need to monitor the queue. For single asset tracking, it references `get_render`. You get working, type-safe code that handles pending states, errors, and final URLs without having to guess the JSON structure.

Test media generation locally

You don't need to write a curl script to verify your setup. Ask Cursor to fire off a test run right from the chat panel. It triggers `generate_image` or `generate_video` to ensure your account routing works. If something breaks, the agent immediately runs `get_account_check` to debug the auth layer. It fixes the headers in your code before you even realize there was a typo.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bannerbite-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Common questions about BannerBite MCP in Cursor

Create an mcp.json file in your project root directory. Add the Vinkius endpoint under the servers key and toggle Agent mode on in your chat panel.

Yes, it can. The agent uses `generate_media` to spin up a test asset so you can verify your template variables work before committing the code.

The editor executes `list_projects` in the background. It reads your live workspace data and suggests the correct project IDs while you type.

Yes, the agent inspects the output of `get_render` to see the exact status strings the API returns. It writes the polling function based on live data, not generic examples.

No. Cursor only accesses your template IDs and render statuses in memory while constructing your code, and nothing is retained on the MCP server side. Vinkius handles the underlying authentication through an ephemeral, zero-trust connection.
