Code with real Close CRM data in Cursor

Agent mode calls `list_close_opportunities` to inject actual deal sizes into your code. Writing internal sales dashboards requires realistic data, which usually means faking JSON responses. The AI writes your frontend components using the exact schema your CRM returns. You skip the mock data phase entirely and build against live production structures.

Build accurate pipeline tools

Cursor uses `list_lead_statuses` to read the active stages directly from your account. Hardcoding sales stages breaks the moment your ops team changes them. Your agent then generates dynamic dropdowns or configuration files based on that real-time list. You deploy code that always matches your current sales process.

Fetch lead profiles via this MCP Server

You tell the editor to run `get_lead_details` to understand what a lead object actually looks like. Building custom internal tools requires deep knowledge of your custom fields. Cursor reads the live response and writes the corresponding TypeScript interfaces for you. The types match your actual custom fields perfectly.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Close MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project root and paste your Vinkius endpoint. Toggle Agent mode on, and the editor can immediately read your sales data.

No, because these tools only read information. The editor pulls context using `list_close_leads` to help you write code, but it cannot mutate your database.

Yes, you can commit the project-scoped MCP configuration file to your repository. Anyone who pulls the repo gets access to the same CRM tools.

Vinkius manages the actual API keys on the backend. You only provide one endpoint token in your configuration file, keeping your primary CRM credentials out of your codebase.

Your opportunity values and custom lead fields remain private. Vinkius executes every tool call inside a zero-trust sandbox that destroys itself immediately after returning the data to your editor.
