How to Use the Douyu MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I configure the Douyu MCP Server in Cursor?

Add the server configuration to your global /.cursor/mcp.json or project-specific .cursor/mcp.json file. Once saved, Cursor's Agent mode can immediately run the tools.

Q: Can I follow a Douyu streamer programmatically using Cursor?

Yes. The followstreamer tool executes a follow action using your OAuth credentials. Your agent can call this during test runs or custom automation scripts.

Q: Does Cursor support sending messages to Douyu live chats?

Yes, you can use the sendmessage tool to post to the live Danmu chat. Your editor's agent can trigger these messages during debugging sessions.

Q: How do I discover active Douyu streams in Cursor?

The getliverooms tool retrieves live streams for any given category ID. You can use it to build dynamic playlists or monitor active esports events directly in your workspace.

Inject live Douyu stream data and chat configurations directly into your Cursor codebase.

Perplexity

Code generation with live API responses

The `get_room_detail` tool fetches live channel information directly into your Cursor agent. This means you write code using actual, real-time JSON payloads instead of relying on outdated API documentation. When building monitoring dashboards, your editor uses live viewer counts and stream titles. You avoid the typical trial-and-error cycle of writing mock data structures.

Automated audience analytics in Cursor

Run the `get_top_donators` tool to gather raw tipping data for your analysis scripts. If you need to build user profiles, `get_user_stats` pulls specific viewer telemetry for your database schemas. This MCP Server lets your agent inspect the virtual economy of any stream. You can write ingestion pipelines that map `get_gift_list` payloads straight to your database tables.

Live chat WebSocket integration

Use the `get_danmu_config` tool to retrieve the connection parameters for the Douyu WebSocket servers. This gives your agent the exact IP addresses and ports needed to construct a real-time bullet-chat parser. This MCP tool lets you write, test, and debug live chat listener code in Cursor. The agent uses the actual platform configs to ensure your WebSocket client connects on the first try.

Setup guide

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