Perplexity

Inject live lead data into Cursor

Stop using mock data when building your sales tools. Use `enrich_company` to feed real firmographic data into the scripts you are writing right now. Your agent can call these tools to verify API responses while you code. It saves you from writing stubs that break as soon as you hit production.

Automate data workflows in Cursor

Write code that interacts with your live scraping jobs. Use `list_workflows` to see what is already configured in your account. Your agent can trigger these workflows based on the logic you define in your editor. It ties your code directly to your sales automation backend.

Verify API limits inside Cursor

Don't let your scripts fail because you ran out of quota. Use `get_api_quotas` to check your current limits before running a heavy data task. This MCP Server lets you build error handling based on real-time usage data. Your agent can decide whether to proceed or wait based on the response.

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)

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 Captain Data 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.
