Generate Code with Real Meraki Device Context

The `get_device` tool pulls real Cisco Meraki hardware metadata directly into your Cursor composer or agent chat. Your Cursor agent reads these live Meraki hardware payloads to write precise, production-ready network automation scripts.

Live Network Configuration Audits via MCP Server

This integration runs `get_appliance_settings` to import active Cisco Meraki security appliance configurations straight into your Cursor workspace. Having this live Cisco Meraki context in your Cursor editor means you spot misconfigured VLANs or routing rules before committing code.

Organization Mapping in Cursor Agent Mode

The `list_organizations` tool allows your Cursor editor to map out your entire Cisco Meraki tenant structure in a single query. Your Cursor agent queries the Meraki organization list, finds the target, and runs downstream tools like `list_devices` without manual input.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cisco-meraki-1-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }

Common questions about Cisco Meraki MCP in Cursor

You add the Cisco Meraki server configuration to your global `~/.cursor/mcp.json` file. Once saved, Cursor immediately enables the Meraki tools for your agent in Chat and Composer modes.

No, this integration is designed for monitoring, meaning Cursor only reads your current Meraki network state via tools like `get_device_statuses`. Writing code that alters live network hardware is completely blocked.

Yes, Cursor Agent mode fully supports this server, allowing the agent to chain Cisco Meraki tools like `list_networks` and `list_devices` together. This lets you build complex network scripts with zero manual context switching.

You do not need to manage raw Meraki keys in your Cursor codebase. Vinkius handles the authentication securely, exposing a single endpoint token that Cursor uses to communicate.

Your Meraki device statuses and IP configurations are processed in memory to generate code within Cursor and are never saved on external servers. The connection uses a secure V8 isolate sandbox to isolate your network information from other processes.
