How to Use the Duffel MCP in Cursor

Q: How does the Duffel integration handle webhooks in Cursor?

Your agent can configure webhooks by running createwebhook. The MCP Server handles this by communicating directly with your configured local or remote endpoints.

Q: Can I verify flight pricing before creating an order?

Yes, your agent runs priceoffer to confirm the final cost. This step ensures that the flight inventory and pricing are locked before you proceed to payment.

Build custom travel apps and test booking flows directly inside your Cursor editor.

Build travel features with live flight data in Cursor

The Duffel MCP server feeds live flight search data directly into your Cursor coding environment. When you write booking logic, your agent invokes `create_offer_request` to fetch live airline payloads, letting you write code against actual API responses instead of static mocks. The agent processes these payloads using `list_offers` to populate your local UI components. This eliminates the guesswork of integration, allowing you to test real travel data structures as you write your code.

Programmatic hotel search and quoting

This MCP Server allows your Cursor agent to interact directly with lodging inventory APIs. The agent executes `search_stays` and `fetch_stay_rates` to pull real-time room rates straight into your active file. You can test booking states by having the agent call `quote_stay` to verify room parameters. This workflow lets you debug accommodation features with live rates before deploying to production.

Live order management in your editor agent

This integration lets you test complex post-booking lifecycles directly within Cursor. Your agent uses `create_order` to generate a live booking, then verifies the order state using `get_order` to inspect the raw JSON response. To test edge cases, you can prompt the agent to run `change_order` or `cancel_order` on sandbox bookings. You see exactly how the Duffel API responds to modifications without leaving your code editor.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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