How to Use the Corbado MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the Corbado server to my Cursor setup?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root or edit your global configuration. Add the server entry with your credentials under the mcpServers key to activate the tools.

Q: Can Cursor help me debug a failed login flow using Corbado?

Yes, your Cursor agent can run getauthprocess to inspect the current state of a pending login. It analyzes the returned error codes to pinpoint why a signature verification or identifier validation failed.

Q: How do I test email verification using these tools?

You initiate the verification sequence with startidentifierverify to send the verification challenge. Once the user provides the code, you call finishidentifierverify to mark the identifier as verified in your backend.

Build and debug Corbado passkey authentication directly inside Cursor using live user directory tools.

Generate real auth code with Cursor

The Corbado MCP Server feeds live API responses directly into your Cursor editor during active development. Your agent invokes `init_login` and `start_passkey_login` to fetch actual challenge structures instead of relying on outdated documentation. This live context prevents integration errors before you commit code. The editor writes your login controllers using the exact JSON shapes returned by `finish_passkey_login`, matching your project's active configuration.

Manage login identifiers from the Cursor terminal

This toolset lets your AI agent inspect and modify user login aliases directly within your workspace. You use `list_identifiers` to retrieve current registration options for a specific account. When a test user needs a new email or phone alias, the agent calls `create_identifier` or `update_identifier` to modify the record. You do not need to pause your coding session to run manual SQL queries or API calls.

Test cross-device passkey linking in Cursor

This MCP server provides tools to handle the Corbado Connect flow for linking secondary devices. Your agent calls `create_connect_token` to generate a secure association token for a user profile. To verify the link, the agent uses `list_connect_passkeys` to confirm the new device registered its credential successfully. If a token expires or needs revocation, running `delete_connect_token` cleans up the state immediately.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Corbado MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project root or edit your global configuration. Add the server entry with your credentials under the `mcpServers` key to activate the tools.

Yes, your Cursor agent can run `get_auth_process` to inspect the current state of a pending login. It analyzes the returned error codes to pinpoint why a signature verification or identifier validation failed.

It runs as a subprocess managed by Cursor using stdio, or connects to a hosted remote endpoint. This allows the AI agent to execute commands like `list_users` securely within your active workspace.

You initiate the verification sequence with `start_identifier_verify` to send the verification challenge. Once the user provides the code, you call `finish_identifier_verify` to mark the identifier as verified in your backend.

Your credentials reside in your local environment configuration, which Cursor passes securely to the server process. Sensitive passkey credentials and private keys never leave the secure Corbado infrastructure during tool execution.
