Perplexity

Fetch live forms into Cursor

Stop hardcoding your form schemas. Use `list_forms` to grab your latest setup and inject it into your codebase in seconds. This keeps your types in sync with your actual backend. Just ask your agent to pull the structure and watch it build the interface.

Debug submissions inside Cursor

When a submission fails to process, you need to see exactly what came through. Use `get_submission` to inspect the raw payload while writing your validation logic. It saves you from flipping back and forth between your code and the browser. You get the real data right where you need it.

Manage your Basin account via Cursor

You can verify your entire integration by running `get_account_check`. It confirms your connection status without leaving your editor. If you need to check if a specific form is live, `get_form` gives you the status immediately. It’s the fastest way to confirm your backend is ready for traffic.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Basin MCP in Cursor

Add the server to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root. Once saved, enable Agent mode to start calling the tools.

It works perfectly. The agent can list submissions, check forms, and even update metadata while it writes your code.

You can configure it globally or per-project. If you have different accounts for different clients, per-project config is the way to go.

The data stays between your editor and the API. It is never logged or stored by the agent itself.

The server treats your form submission payloads as transient data. It performs the requested action and clears the memory immediately after the tool returns.
