How to Use the Buzzsprout MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I configure the Buzzsprout integration inside Cursor?

Add the server configuration to your project's .cursor/mcp.json file. Cursor automatically detects the new tools, enabling your agent to access your podcast data.

Q: Can Cursor automatically update my Buzzsprout episode titles?

Yes, Cursor can call updateepisode to modify your live titles based on your workspace files. You just approve the edits before the editor sends the API request.

Q: Can I delete an episode from my workspace?

Yes, running deleteepisode from the editor chat removes that specific file from your feed. The agent asks for your explicit confirmation before executing this destructive action.

Write code that interacts with your Buzzsprout podcast feed using Cursor's active workspace context.

Inject real podcast data into your Cursor code

`list_episodes` pulls your actual live feed data directly into your Cursor editor workspace. Your AI agent uses these real API responses to build and test frontend components instead of relying on mock JSON files. Writing a custom website player becomes faster when Cursor can inspect your live audio URLs. The editor writes components against your actual Buzzsprout data structure.

Automate show note generation inside Cursor

`create_episode` links your newly written markdown show notes to your actual podcast feed via MCP. Cursor reads your local workspace files and pushes them to Buzzsprout with zero manual copy-pasting. If you need to make bulk updates to past episodes, `update_episode` runs changes across your catalog. The editor executes these updates directly from your active code context.

Query host settings with this Cursor MCP Server

`get_podcast_info` fetches your account's primary RSS details directly into your active coding session. This saves you from hardcoding feed URLs or searching through your Buzzsprout dashboard. Cursor uses this live context to configure environment variables or verify API connections. You get instant validation that your integration code matches your actual podcast settings.

Setup guide

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