Perplexity

Draft contracts directly from Cursor

Call `send_agreement` to initiate a contract request without leaving your editor. The AI uses the `get_template` tool to pull in the correct boilerplate for your specific needs. This keeps your workflow centered in the IDE. You don't have to jump to a web dashboard just to get a legal document sent out to a client.

Query Common Paper records in Cursor

Use `list_agreements` to bring your current contract list into your project context. The AI can then reference these details to write logic that depends on specific deal terms. It removes the need to copy-paste IDs or document summaries manually. You get raw access to your agreement data as part of your development environment.

Monitor contract events inside Cursor

Keep tabs on your business logic by checking webhooks with `list_webhooks`. If you need to stop an alert, just run `delete_webhook` right from your terminal or chat. This keeps your integration clean and manageable. You control every notification path from the same window where you edit your project code.

Setup guide

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

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

Common questions about Common Paper MCP in Cursor

Add the server configuration to your .cursor/mcp.json file. Once you enable Agent mode, the tools become available for the AI to call.

Yes, once you configure the server, the AI can search and retrieve your contract information. It makes building automated legal workflows much faster.

The AI can use the tools to fetch real data about your agreements. It then uses that live info to write code that actually reflects your current contract status.

The server doesn't store logs in your project; it just performs actions via the API. You can see the tool calls in your chat history.

Your contract identifiers and status updates remain private to your session. The server acts as a bridge and does not persist your sensitive document content in the IDE.
