How to Use the Base64 & Binary Encoder MCP in Cursor

Q: Is this a project-level or global tool?

It can be either. Add the MCP server config to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root for local scope, or put it in /.cursor/mcp.json to make it available everywhere.

Inject correctly encoded strings directly into your code. Let your Cursor agent handle Base64, Hex, and Base64URL conversions on the fly.

Generate Code with Real Encoded Data

The `encode_binary` tool lets your agent write code with properly formatted data from the start. Stop writing stubs or using placeholder values. Tell the agent what to encode, and it will inject the real Base64 or Hex string into the code it's generating. Your agent gets direct access to the conversion logic. This means the code it produces for API calls or data handling works immediately, because it's built with the correctly encoded payloads, not mock data.

Inspect and Debug Encoded Strings

Staring at a long encoded string and not sure what's in it? Just highlight it and ask your agent to decode it using `encode_binary`. It's faster than finding an online tool and more secure. You can quickly check the contents of a JWT, an API response, or any encoded data you come across. The decoded text appears right in the chat, keeping your debugging loop tight and focused inside the editor.

Configure Your Encoding Tool in Cursor

Set this tool up once for your entire project. By adding this MCP server to your `.cursor/mcp.json` file, you give your agent a reliable utility for all data conversions. This makes your AI agent's behavior predictable. It won't try to guess at encoding, it will use the specific `encode_binary` tool you've provided, ensuring consistent output every time you ask for a conversion.

Setup guide

Set up Base64 & Binary Encoder 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 Base64 & Binary Encoder 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 Base64 & Binary Encoder transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Base64 & Binary Encoder tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "base64-binary-encoder-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }

Common questions about Base64 & Binary Encoder MCP in Cursor

In Agent mode, you can ask your agent to use the tool. For example: "Get the contents of that file, encode it to base64, and create a JSON payload with it." It uses the `encode_binary` tool to perform the conversion.

It's for when you're interacting with the AI, not for your production code's runtime. It lets the agent generate correct code snippets with real encoded data, saving you the step of doing it manually.

Absolutely. You can instruct the agent to encode to Base64, Hex, or Base64URL. It's perfect for when an API requires a specific format.

It can be either. Add the MCP server config to `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project root for local scope, or put it in `~/.cursor/mcp.json` to make it available everywhere.

The string data you want to encode is sent to the Vinkius MCP server for processing. These servers operate in an ephemeral, zero-trust sandbox, meaning your data is processed and immediately discarded. Nothing is logged or stored.
