How to Use the Bluesky Social MCP in Cursor
Build features with live social context by connecting Bluesky Social to your Cursor editor.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Bluesky Social MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Bluesky Social to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Test social integrations with live Bluesky Social data
Stop writing mock data for your social apps. Use Cursor agent mode to call the `get_profile` and `get_user_posts` tools, pulling real Bluesky Social API responses directly into your active code files. Having live payloads in Cursor means you can write accurate parsers and UI components. Your agent writes code against actual JSON structures from your Bluesky Social profile instead of guessing the schema.
Automate post testing in Cursor using this MCP Server
Verify your publishing logic by letting Cursor execute actual posts. The MCP server lets you run `create_post` from the Composer panel, so you can test how text formatting and links render on Bluesky Social. You can ask the Cursor agent to write a post, publish it, and immediately check the output. It cuts down on manual testing and keeps your development loop entirely inside the editor.
Manage your developer network from the Cursor sidebar
Connect with other builders on Bluesky Social without leaving your workspace. Ask Cursor to run `search_profiles` and `list_followers` to find developers who are talking about your tech stack. Once you find them, use `follow_user` directly from the Cursor terminal or chat. It lets you build your Bluesky Social audience while you write the code they might be interested in.
