How to Use the Elemeno MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I configure Cursor to work with Elemeno?

Add the Elemeno MCP Server to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root or global directory. Once configured, enable Agent mode in the Cursor chat panel to let the AI call tools like getcollectiondetails on your behalf.

Q: Can I run content audits using Elemeno in Cursor?

Yes, your Cursor agent can run quickcontentvolumeaudit to compare your local mock data folder against live CMS volume. This helps you verify that your local environment is in sync with the live Elemeno database.

Q: How does Cursor find specific items inside an Elemeno collection?

The agent uses searchcollectioncontent to locate items by their title or slug keyword. It then grabs the raw content using getcollectionitemdetails to write precise data-fetching hooks.

Inject live Elemeno CMS schemas and content directly into your Cursor editor to build frontend components with real data.

Generate frontend code with real Elemeno schemas

The Elemeno MCP Server gives your Cursor Agent direct access to your CMS structure using `get_collection_details` and `list_content_collections`. Instead of guessing field names or using outdated TypeScript interfaces, the agent inspects your live schema and writes typed code that matches your CMS perfectly. You get production-ready React or Next.js components that map directly to your actual Elemeno fields. No more runtime errors from mismatched API payloads or missing properties.

Query and debug collections via Cursor MCP Server

This MCP Server allows your Cursor agent to run `list_collection_items` and `get_collection_item_details` directly inside your coding workspace. When a component fails to render, ask the editor to check the live API response for that specific item. The agent identifies whether the bug is in your frontend rendering logic or if the CMS entry is simply missing a required field. You fix bugs in seconds without switching back and forth between your code and a browser.

Track global singletons during local development

Running `list_content_singletons` and `get_singleton_content` via the MCP Server inside Cursor lets you pull global page settings and configurations straight into your code. If you are building a header or footer that relies on singleton data, your agent pulls the exact JSON structure to write accurate parsing logic. This stops you from hardcoding placeholder values that inevitably break when you deploy. You build layouts that are bound to your live Elemeno configuration from day one.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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