How to Use the Deel MCP in Cursor

Q: Can I use the Deel MCP Server with Cursor to build a financial report?

Absolutely. You can instruct the agent to use the listinvoices and listpayments tools to get data from Deel, then tell it to write a script that formats that data into a report.

Q: What's the setup process for Deel tools in Cursor?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project's root directory. Add the server details there, and the tools will be available to the agent.

Stop mocking data. Use Cursor to generate code with live HR and payment information directly from your Deel account.

Generate Frontends with Live Deel Data

Tell Cursor's agent to build a component that shows your team. It will use `list_people` to get real names and roles from Deel, then generate the React or Vue code with that data already plugged in. You can get more specific. Ask it to generate a table of active contracts using `list_contracts`, complete with their status and compensation type. What you see in the editor is exactly what you'd get from the Deel API.

Automate Reporting with a Cursor Agent

Stop exporting CSVs. Instruct the agent to write a Python script that pulls all overdue invoices using `list_invoices`. The agent will call the tool, get the live data, and write the code to process it. You can do the same for expenses. Tell it to find all pending expense reports with `list_expenses` and format them into a JSON object for another service. This MCP Server makes writing financial glue code much faster.

Connect Your Code to Deel's API

When you're building a feature that needs to know a user's employment status, you don't have to guess the API response. Ask the agent to get a user's contract with `get_contract`. The agent will call the tool and inject the actual data structure into your code. It's useful for checking contract types, payment history via `get_person`, or milestone progress with `list_milestones` while you build.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Deel MCP in Cursor

Enable Agent mode and ask it to build something. Cursor calls the Deel MCP Server tools like `list_people` to fetch live data and uses it to write functional code on the spot.

Absolutely. You can instruct the agent to use the `list_invoices` and `list_payments` tools to get data from Deel, then tell it to write a script that formats that data into a report.

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project's root directory. Add the server details there, and the tools will be available to the agent.

Yes, it's designed for Agent mode. This lets the AI autonomously call Deel tools like `get_contract` to fetch information and use it to write or edit your code.

The server accesses your Deel account's invoice, expense report, and team member data. Vinkius ensures each operation is isolated and ephemeral, meaning the container that processes your request is destroyed immediately after, leaving no trace of your data.
