Inject BC statutes into Cursor files

Trigger `get_bc_statute` while coding to pull verified legal text into your buffer. The agent places the exact language right where you need it. Stop guessing about legislative requirements while you build. You get real API responses injected into your editor rather than placeholders.

List all BC acts in Cursor

Use `list_bc_acts` to retrieve a complete index of provincial legislation. It helps you identify the right act to reference for your current project. Your agent parses this list to find the specific files you need. It keeps your code logic aligned with the actual statutes on the books.

Explore consolidated laws in Cursor

Run `list_consolidated_laws` to view active statutes and regulations as a group. This gives you a clear view of the legislative structure you are building against. Cursor reads these results to help you write better code. It saves you from manual lookups and ensures your logic stays grounded in the law.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about BCLaws API MCP in Cursor

Use the agent mode to ask for a law by name or keyword. Cursor calls `search_bc_laws` and displays the results in your chat sidebar.

Absolutely. Just ask the agent to pull a regulation, and it uses `get_bc_regulation` to fetch the content for your current file.

It provides the text you request. You decide how to incorporate that information into your codebase using the agent's output.

Add the server details to your .cursor/mcp.json file. Once saved, the tools become available in your agent's toolset immediately.

Only the specific search terms sent to the BCLaws API leave your machine. Your proprietary code remains local and is never shared with the law database.
