How to Use the BIMobject MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the BIMobject server to my Cursor project?

Add the MCP Server configuration to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your repository root. Enable Agent mode in the chat panel to let Cursor run the product search tools.

Q: Can Cursor download and parse BIMobject files automatically?

Yes, Cursor uses getproductfiles to get the raw download links for CAD or Revit files. It can then write scripts to download and organize these assets inside your project folders.

Q: How does the tool handle brand details?

It calls getbranddetails to return manufacturer contact info, logos, and product lines. This lets you populate your local databases with verified brand assets.

Write code that pulls live BIMobject product specs and CAD files directly into your active Cursor workspace.

Generate Code with Real BIMobject Marketplace Data in Cursor

Stop writing mock data for your construction tech apps. Cursor uses this MCP Server to run `search_products` and inject actual manufacturer JSON payloads directly into your active editor. Your Cursor agent writes your parsing scripts while testing them against live output from `get_product_details`. This ensures your code handles real-world API responses from the start.

Map Manufacturer Classifications Automatically

When building databases for building materials, use Cursor to call `list_classifications` and `list_categories`. The editor reads the returned schema and writes clean TypeScript types matching the real endpoint. It saves you from manually reading API docs. The agent compares the classification structures and writes the translation layers inside your workspace.

Fetch Product Files for Local Asset Pipelines

If you are building a tool to process 3D models, Cursor can invoke tools using the BIMobject MCP Server to fetch actual asset URLs. It runs `get_product_files` to grab the exact links you need. The editor uses these live URLs to test your download and extraction scripts. You see exactly how the files are structured without leaving your coding environment.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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