Scaffold Scripts with Live Data

Stop writing API client boilerplate. Tell your Cursor agent to build a script that audits your affiliate revenue, and it will use `quick_affiliate_revenue_audit` and `list_affiliate_transactions` to generate working code with real data. This means no more mock data or empty stubs. The agent calls the tools, gets the JSON response, and writes the code to parse it. You go from an idea to a functioning script in one step.

Find and Vet Programs in Your IDE

You don't need to switch contexts to find new affiliate partners. Use `@Effiliation search_affiliate_programs` in Cursor's chat to find programs that fit your product. Once you have a list, the agent can use `get_program_details` to pull commission rates and terms right into your editor. It's perfect for building automated scripts that monitor and join new, high-value programs.

Connect Your Code to the Effiliation MCP Server

Your agent gets direct access to your affiliate account's performance. It can call `get_performance_statistics` to get a high-level overview or `list_latest_conversions` to see individual sales. The code Cursor generates isn't a guess; it's based on the actual schema and data returned by the Effiliation API. This tightens the loop between checking your data and building the tools to manage it.

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".
