Build with real Doofinder data in Cursor

Use `search_custom` to run complex queries that return actual production data. Your AI can now write logic based on the real shape of your search results. Call `search_sorted` to test your frontend display logic against real ranking data. You stop guessing how your UI handles specific product orders.

Automate catalog inspection in Cursor

Run `get_items` to pull live product objects straight into your editor. You can reference actual item properties while writing your search components. Use `get_indices` to map your project to the correct environment. It ensures your code points to the right catalog every time you trigger a build.

Streamline search logic

Call `search_pagination` to handle large sets of results without manual offset math. It lets you build robust infinite scroll or pagination features in half the time. Use `search_keyword` to verify that your search implementation catches the right products. You see the exact response the user gets before you commit your code.

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".

Add the Doofinder 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.
