How to Use the ChartHop MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the ChartHop MCP Server to Cursor?

Create an mcp.json file in your project root. Add the Vinkius remote URL under the servers list, then turn on Agent mode to start querying your HR data.

Q: Does this MCP Server work across all my Cursor projects?

Yes, if you place the configuration file in your global /.cursor/mcp.json directory. Project-specific setups work better if only one codebase needs access to the HR data.

Inject real employee data, job roles, and team structures directly into your code with Cursor.

Build HR tools with live ChartHop data

This MCP Server connects your code editor directly to your company directory. When you write an internal dashboard, Cursor calls `list_organization_people` to populate your frontend components with real employee records. You stop wasting time writing mock JSON objects. Fetching individual records is just as direct. The agent triggers `get_person_details` to pull exact titles and reporting lines right into your test files. Your development loop tightens because you work with actual production data structures from minute one.

Map organizational logic in Cursor

Building permission systems often requires knowing exactly how the company is structured. Your AI client reads the current setup via the MCP Server using `list_organization_departments` and `list_organization_teams` while you write authorization logic. Cursor writes the code based on how your teams actually operate. Hardcoding department IDs stops entirely. The agent fetches the live department list and injects the correct constants straight into your codebase. You get accurate mappings without leaving the editor to check API docs.

Integrate headcount planning data

Developers working on internal financial or recruiting tools need access to future hiring plans. Cursor uses `list_planning_scenarios` and `list_organization_jobs` to pull active headcount models directly into your workspace. You see exactly what roles are approved for the next quarter. Digging into specific roles or high-level company stats takes seconds. The `get_job_details` and `get_organization_summary` tools give the agent the context it needs to write accurate API integration tests. Your code matches the real state of your HR backend.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about ChartHop MCP in Cursor

Create an `mcp.json` file in your project root. Add the Vinkius remote URL under the servers list, then turn on Agent mode to start querying your HR data.

The current tools only read information. Your agent fetches rosters or job details, but it cannot create new employees or change compensation plans.

You skip the manual API testing phase entirely. Cursor fetches the live data and writes the integration code for you based on the exact responses it gets back.

Yes, if you place the configuration file in your global `~/.cursor/mcp.json` directory. Project-specific setups work better if only one codebase needs access to the HR data.

Your headcount plans, employee lists, and department structures pass through a secure, zero-trust pipeline. Vinkius operates the MCP Server in an isolated sandbox that destroys itself the moment your editor receives the requested payload.
