Generate code using live Common Room MCP Server data

The `get_contact_by_email` tool lets Cursor fetch real community profiles to populate your local code templates. Your editor directly queries the API instead of relying on outdated mock JSON files. Cursor uses the returned Common Room schema to write typed interfaces automatically. You can test your local frontend components with actual member tags fetched via `get_contact_tags`.

Automate segment syncs within your workspace

The `add_contact_to_segment` tool lets your Cursor agent write and test integration scripts that modify user lists. You can run these commands directly from the editor's terminal interface. Developers use `list_segments` to verify segment IDs before deploying sync logic. Cursor checks `get_segment_status` to confirm the updates worked.

Inspect organization directories while writing code

The `search_organizations` tool retrieves real-time account records directly into your Cursor chat. You can inspect the structure of organization objects using `get_organization_details` while building custom CRM syncs. This workflow stops you from context-switching to browser tabs. You pull the exact data shapes you need right where you write your code.

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 Common Room 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.
