Real-time Dotdigital data in Cursor

Stop using mock data for your marketing integrations. Cursor Agent calls `list_email_campaigns` and `get_campaign_details` to pull real production data into your editor. Your code reflects the actual state of your email marketing. You write logic based on live campaign performance instead of static documentation.

Context-aware contact lookups

Pull subscriber information directly into your dev environment using `get_contact_profile` and `list_address_book_contacts`. It helps you test your data mapping scripts with real records. Use `search_marketing_contacts` to find specific users while you debug your API handlers. It saves you from switching to the web dashboard just to check a field value.

Audit your automation programs

Expose your active journeys via `list_automation_programs`. Cursor can read these programs and help you structure your integration code correctly. Run `quick_marketing_health_audit` to check account status before deploying new changes. It ensures your integration environment matches your production configuration.
