How to Use the Docdown MCP in Cursor

Q: Can Cursor help me map database fields to Docdown templates?

Yes, the agent uses gettemplatefieldschema to read the template requirements. It then writes the glue code to map your database columns directly to those fields.

Q: How do I track recent generations in Cursor?

The agent uses listrecentlygenerateddocs to pull a list of files created in the last day. You can grab the download links right from your chat panel.

Q: Can I check my account limits from the editor?

Yes, getdocdownaccountmetadata exposes your usage stats. This helps you monitor your remaining balance during high-volume testing.

Write code that generates PDFs using live Docdown template data inside Cursor.

Build real payloads using live schemas

The `get_template_field_schema` tool pulls the exact JSON schema for your Docdown templates into your editor. Your Cursor agent reads this structure to write accurate integration code on the first try. Stop guessing which keys are optional. The agent uses `get_template_details` to verify field types, mapping your database models to the document inputs without errors.

Run live tests with this MCP Server

The `generate_new_document` tool lets your editor compile and test PDF generation directly during development. You can trigger live runs using sandbox data to check the output before committing code. Use `get_document_status` to fetch the completed PDF URL. You can inspect the visual layout immediately, bypassing the usual mock-and-pray development cycle.

Audit template IDs inside your codebase

The `list_doc_templates` tool retrieves your entire active library so you can match template IDs in your configuration files via this MCP Server. Your agent scans this list to flag hardcoded strings that no longer exist. If you are looking for a specific layout, `search_templates_by_name` lets you query your account. It replaces manual dashboard searches with quick, in-editor lookups.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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